Rock the Cathedral ON TOUR!

Another thing you and your young people could do is get ready for Rock the Cathedral in 2012 by getting involved in a sleep out. People from other dioceses loved our idea of Rock the Cathedral so much that they’ve decided to do one too. I’ve been talking with other Youth Officers from Gloucester and Hereford (Steve and Esther) and Gloucester are putting on Rock the Cathedral in early 2012 (Date TBC) in Gloucester Cathedral. The idea will be to have a Rock the Cathedral in Hereford after that and then back in Worcester! Gloucester are tying this in with a challenge to spend the night sleeping out during the Autumn term to raise money and awareness for a local homeless charity. So how about getting out some cardboard boxes and raising some money for St Paul’s Hostel or St Basil’s  or another local homeless charity. I’ll be putting some further guidelines about this up on the website. If you make a video or take some photos of your sponsored event they might make it onto the big screen on the night. Some of our schools will be running coaches down to Gloucester and there’ll be a van outside the cathedral selling food. Inside the cathedral there’ll be bands, circus skills, an acoustic cafĂ©, a gallery area of all kinds of activities, a homeless street display and much more! Watch out for fliers about Rock the Cathedral Gloucester  2012.
