Fundraising Events

We are proud to partner with local charities and organisations to run joint fundraising initiatives.

Abseil

For over a decade, thousands have experienced the thrill of abseiling off the iconic Liverpool Cathedral. Descending in a 150ft free hang from above the great West Door, some people face fears, some revel in the excitement – all raise money for some amazing charities and causes.

The 2024 Cathedral Abseil raised approximately £180,000 for 28 charities including Claire House, Alder Hey, and Whitechapel. Thanks to everyone who took part!

In 2025, our abseils will take place across four weekends in July.

Want to Abseil?

Most spaces are held by our charity partners – this list will be updated bi-weekly. If you wish to sign up as a charity partner, please complete our Charity Registration form.

If you would like to abseil for a different charity, please fill out our Expression of Interest form or contact fundraising@liverpoolcathedral.org.uk.

Sleepout

Everyone needs to have a place to call home – a nice comfy bed, hot food to eat, somewhere you can watch television, play games or read a book. Unfortunately, not everyone in our city has this.

Liverpool Cathedral and The Whitechapel Centre are working hard with those people who need a place to call home and help them reach their full potential. We need your help, by spending ONE night away sleeping in Liverpool Cathedral and raise money, enabling us to help as many people as possible.

Wreath making

A wonderful way to support Liverpool Cathedral and make your own seasonal decoration for your door.

Our wreath workshops welcome some of the most talented florists in the North West to share their skills with you. Why buy an arrangement when you can learn to make it yourself?

Each event uses a mix of fresh and dried flowers and foliage, with extra decorative items available to purchase on the day.

Our next session is on Saturday 14th December 2024, in the main space. If you have any questions please email fundraising@liverpoolcathedral.org.uk.

Save Our Sound: Thank you for your support!

Thank you to all the donors who have supported the Sound System campaign.

Our suppliers are now in the process of completing the first phase of works in the Cathedral which will restore the main space sound system to full working order, with an upgraded sound quality and experience.

We are so grateful for the generous donations of the Cathedral community which enabled this to happen.
