Jill Taylor

Director of Development @Exeter Cathedral

How brilliant to be working with the Dean and Chapter, staff team and volunteers throughout the County as we undertake important renovations and improvements to Devon\'s most beautiful Cathedral. Together we are enabling a whole range of new facilities and vital repairs. The new Quire floor is laid, the Friends\' Cloister Gallery is open, the Chapter House looks stunning and we have better access to make people feel welcome. Everyone\'s contributions make a big difference to achieve our ambitious target, we are at £13m of investment in the past five years and counting. The work doesn\'t stop as we focus on the Cathedral visitors\' enjoyment of the glorious building and deal with poor and aging heating, lighting, sound, loos and address clutter, visitor flow and welcome, as well as tackling repairs to the various historic roofs and buildings and create a new Treasures Gallery. I hope you will join me in this challenge.
