Legacies & In Memory
Build a lasting legacy
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Matthew 6:21
Bristol Cathedral is a special place to so many; a place to seek peace during difficult times, share special occasions with loved ones or sing with friends.
It means different things to everyone but is a constant in many people’s lives. This magnificent building has stood for over 900 years and we hope it will always be there to seek prayer, find tranquillity and community in the heart of the city.
Gifts through legacies and in memoriam, supports the core of Cathedral life, allowing it to live on.
