Help us to recreate the shrine of St Chad, our founding bishop and co-patron saint, whose original shrine here was a focus of Christian hope, healing and pilgrimage.
We will look back to the source of Chad’s faith and mission and how it shaped our history and purpose. We will mark the 1350th anniversary of his death in 2022 by reconnecting the Cathedral and the community with Chad’s story and his message. Together with the Lichfield Icons and the statue of St Chad, the shrine will strengthen the Cathedral as a destination for pilgrims and for all those who seek healing.
