Truro Cathedral is looking for strategic leaders to help shape our future

Truro Cathedral is changing to respond to the needs, desires and hopes of Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly, and those who visit them. To help this extraordinary church to thrive both now and in the future, we need to strengthen our governance team of charity trustees (“the Chapter”) and committee members. We need more people from a diverse range of backgrounds to serve either as Chapter trustees or as members of the committees that provide it with constructive advice and scrutiny. For the right person, these are wonderful opportunities to make a significant contribution to the life of Truro Cathedral in the run up to 2030 - the 150th anniversary of the laying of our foundation stone. If you have relevant skills and recent experience, and you want to help the cathedral succeed in the next period of its history, we would like to hear from you. Please email your application before noon, Tuesday 11 March.
