The Very Reverend Chris Dalliston, Dean of Peterborough, expressed his gratitude, saying:
“We’re hugely delighted (and relieved) to have achieved and exceeded our £300,000 target. We are also truly humbled by the depth and breadth of support from over a thousand generous individual donors and other groups and institutions, within the city and beyond, who have helped us achieve this goal and ensure that the doors of our Cathedral will remain open to all. Every gift, however great or small, is so greatly appreciated.

However, we are in no way complacent. This is only the first step in building a long-term sustainable future for the Cathedral. We continue to operate on fine margins in a challenging financial environment, and over the coming year we shall need to continue to work hard to strengthen our network of supporters and develop additional sources of revenue to ensure we remain a vibrant community, serving our city, our diocese, and the wider region.”
The campaign has been met with overwhelming support from individuals, businesses, and institutions alike, reaffirming the Cathedral’s role as a cherished landmark and community hub.
