These sessions are recommended for children aged 4–11 and their grown-ups. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
While booking isn’t essential, we encourage you to register in advance so we can make sure there’s plenty of space and materials for everyone to enjoy.

Visiting for the first time?
Newcastle Cathedral is committed to being a place of welcome for all. We are dedicated to the care and protection of everyone who visits.
As well as being, first and foremost, a working church, we offer targeted support for vulnerable individuals seeking emotional and physical refuge, including prison leavers, those recovering from addiction, people experiencing homelessness, and survivors of gender-based violence.
We aim to ensure that all visitors have the information they need to enjoy a safe and positive experience.
