'You shall love your neighbour as yourself.'
From the Cathedral's Vision for 2025
In 2025 Worcester Cathedral will be a catalyst for campaigning and awareness on the environment and social justice.
For social justice, this means:
- Developing a forum/community within the cathedral for social justice to ‘identify, learn, act and pray’, coordinating our approach to mission & giving.
- Championing/raising awareness of current involvement/hosting local organisations for the vulnerable (Homelessness, foodbank etc).
- Becoming a Safe Place that provides a welcome for all.
One of the ways in which we support this work is by donating a portion of the Cathedral's income from congregational giving to external charitable and mission organisations. The following are the organisations we have chosen to support in this way in 2025:

Worcester Welcomes
A charity dedicated to assisting asylum seekers in their journey towards integration. They provide essential support services, including housing, benefits guidance, training opportunities and social events.
