Welcomers – Should be healthy enough to stand and greet visitors, we especially welcome volunteers with foreign language skills
Education – May require a DBS check
Cathedral in LEGO® – Assist in building our miniature cathedral while interacting with our many visitors
Cathedral Estate / gardens – Help keep the Cathedral Estate and it’s gardens on top form, and appealing to Cestrians and city visitors alike
