Gifts of Comfort, Faith and Inspiration: New Products for 2025

Published January 2025

The Cathedral retail space is open Monday to Saturday from 10am to 3pm, run by our wonderful team of volunteers.

In this article, Front of House Assistant Jen Flint introduces some of the latest additions…

We’re delighted that our Cathedral retail space has reopened for 2025 and features an exciting range of new products.

One of our new stockists is a small UK-based company called Hope and Ginger, who specialise in gifts that offer encouragement, grow faith, and give blessings to others with thoughtful words. We’re selling a range of their unique cards that combine fresh colours and designs with psalms and spiritual messages; whether you’re looking to celebrate the birth or baptism of a new child, wish to send thoughts and prayers at a time of challenge or bereavement, or simply want to tell a friend or loved one you’re thinking of them.

We’re also trialling new packs of ‘Prayer Postcards’ and ‘Psalms in a Tin’, which we already love.

Our bestselling olive wood holding crosses are also back in stock, alongside a new olive wood heart. These could be a lovely gift for Valentine’s Day and Mothering Sunday or a small token a loved one can pop in their pocket or handbag as a source of everyday comfort and connection.

If you’re looking for a perfect lightweight gift to send inside a card or letter, we have a new range of vinyl stickers featuring inspirational messages that we expect will prove a big hit with visitors.

We are also extending our range of Faith Strings: hand-strung and knotted bracelets designed by a small family business that carry messages of faith, love, and friendship.

We hope you’ll find something special in our retail space and look forward to welcoming you soon!

Newcastle Cathedral is a registered charity and all funds raised via the retail space help to maintain this beautiful building, continue our charitable work and keep our doors open for all.
