Worcester Cathedral has received initial support for a £1.2m National Lottery grant to conserve and bring into use for the first time, the 12th century Undercroft to College Hall to create a unique and historic venue to facilitate learning, arts and heritage for the whole community.
The Cathedral needs to raise £500,000 in matched funding to unlock the second stage grant of £1m. This means that every donation made to this project will be trebled in value by the Heritage Lottery Fund.
