We report with sadness that this evening, Sheffield Cathedral has suffered damage due to a fire.
We do not yet know the full extent of the damage but the fire is out. It is particularly sad and difficult as the fire has affected the part of the Cathedral where the Cathedral Archer Project work from and meet the needs of some of the most vulnerable people in our City. No one was hurt in the incident. The cause of the fire is being investigated by South Yorkshire Police and the Fire and Rescue Service.
