Join us for our first ever Community Showcase event, to highlight charities, not for profit and other organisations that operate locally to support social justice and environmental issues and build a stronger, more inclusive community.

On Saturday 10 June 2023, 11am – 3pm, we will be welcoming more than 50 organisations to the Cathedral, providing them with an opportunity to network and inform the public about their work, their challenges and plans for the future. In addition to stalls in the Nave we will be running panels throughout the day on 4 topics: Homelessness, Supporting the Vulnerable in a Cost of Living crisis, Community Engagement & Volunteer Recruitment, and Environment & Climate Issues. There will be a specific focus on how those issues impact our community in St Albans and the local areas – and what we can do about them. The panel members will include key individuals from the various participating organisations.

The event will coincide with the beginning of SustFest, which will be both supporting and exhibiting. The event will be open to everyone and free to attend. There will be children’s activities, and refreshments will be available in the Cathedral grounds.

This promises to be a fascinating and informative day – and an opportunity for us all to discover some of the amazing work being done in the community and to get more engaged in what is important to us!
