Scrapbook (26th July 2023)

Here are some of the Bradford Cathedral highlights from the last week. We start by looking back at a great event as part of the Bradford Literature Festival…

Paterson Joseph, the star of stage and screen, joined us for a talk on his debut novel, The Secret Diaries of Charles Ignatius Sancho, revealing the astonishing story of the first Black man to vote in Britain – a true social reformer and man of letters in Regency London. pic.twitter.com/p3vzFkUyR4

And marking an unusual day in the calendar!

Today is #PiApproximationDay – as it's 22/7.
As requested by Adam Roebuck on Facebook back in March, here are some photos of when we laid out Pi in the Cathedral for our Abraham Sharp open day – he calculated pi to 72 decimal places pic.twitter.com/45wzGguHOy

We continued looking at our new vision…

In this fourth video about our new vision – To Weave Jesus into the rich fabric of the city and beyond 2023-2028 – the Very Revd Andy Bowerman, Dean of Bradford, introduces our first aim – 'We aim to become more sustainable – in spite of the adverse winds we often feel'. pic.twitter.com/BpPIptEpNb

We held family activities…

Had a lovely family afternoon at @Bfdcathedral particularly the tour from Maggie. Bradford Cathedral, like Bradford itself, is full of hidden gems.
