Coronavirus updates - Peterborough Cathedral

During the coronavirus outbreak, we will use this page to link to any updates from the Cathedral, so that you don't have to search for them in different parts of the website. These are loosely organised into the key areas of the Cathedral's work.

Worship

All public worship is suspended, but clergy will continue to observe daily prayers at home. All the times of services, and links to online resources to allow you to join in yourself, are on the first link below.

We hope to provide video and audio recordings, or to live stream, every Sunday morning at 10.30am. You can watch or listen again by following the second link below.

This page also includes text from talks or sermons, where these are available.

Learning

Although the Easter Monday Fun Day on 13th April has been cancelled, but we will be posting video and instruction sheets online so that you don't miss out on Easter makes to celebrate resurrection and new life! Check back here for details.

Our knowledgeable volunteer guides are also working on some blog posts about various aspects of the Cathedal's fascinating history. Watch this space for more.

Hospitality

Although we are not able to welcome you in person at the moment, we'd love to hear from you via via social media:

Facebook: @PeterboroughCathedral
Twitter: @pborocathedral
Instagram: @peterborough_cathedral

If you live in the city centre and arrive on foot, you could take a walk in the grounds for exercise during the day - as long as this is done according to Public Health England advice - by individuals or in household groups only, and staying a safe 2 metres away from one another.
