Sponsor a Lead Roof Tile
The roof of Canterbury Cathedral is made of more than 3000 lead roof tiles. Lead has a life span of around 100 years and many parts of the existing roof were last re-leaded over 150 years ago. Many of the existing tiles are worn out and the roof is leaking.
The project is massive. The nave roof, which requires the most urgent attention, is almost 60 metres long; longer than an olympic swimming pool.
Be a part of it
You now have a unique opportunity to support the Save Canterbury Cathedral Appeal in a very personal way. You are invited to sponsor a lead roof tile, personalised with up to three initials, which will form part of the new roof.
Making a difference together
Whether you choose to sponsor a tile as an individual, business, school, social organisation, as a gift, or in memory of a loved one, it is a wonderful way to play your part in the Save Canterbury Cathedral Appeal.
How to Sponsor a Lead Roof Tile
Each lead roof tile costs £1000 and in return for your generous sponsorship you will receive a Certificate of Thanks from the Dean and Chapter of Canterbury Cathedral (pictured below). You can also choose to have your donation recognised on our online Roll of Donors
Payment is easy; you can make a one-off donation or pay in installments over a minimum of 12 months. Just print off our order form and return it to us with your donation .
