The Friends of St Davids Cathedral are hosting two exciting events in the coming weeks!

On Friday 11th September at 7.00pm, join 4 piece vocal group Ensemble Stinan in the Cathedral for a programme entitled 'songs of love and loss'. The four singers, Abi, Chris, Lawrence and Ben are professional singers in our Cathedral Choir, and are excited to be returning to sing at the cathedral in their ensemble which first performed here in 2023.

On Saturday 19th September at 7.00pm, Welsh rugby legend Sir Gerald Davies is holding a Q&A evening at Ty'r Pererin on Quickwell Hill. This is a rare opportunity to hear from one of Wales' finest players from the golden age of Welsh rugby. Croeso i bawb!

We’re looking forward to welcoming Ali as she arrives at the cathedral on Friday just before Evensong.

🚶‍♀️ And she’s off!

This morning, the Revd Canon Ali Reeves sets out from Ammanford on a five-day, 75-mile pilgrimage to St Davids Cathedral.

Walking solo and unsupported, Ali is raising funds for All Saints Church, Ammanford, and Ammanford Foodbank, while also taking time for prayer and reflection along the way.

We’ll be cheering her on as she makes her way across west Wales towards St Davids! 🙌
