Purpose & values

Our ambition serves to state our purpose: Inspired by the Gospel of Jesus Christ, our ambition is to build a welcoming, inclusive and engaging environment that, through the delivery of a diverse and inspiring programme of worship, events, educational activities and community outreach, fulfils and spiritually enriches all who experience Truro Cathedral.

Our values are central to achieving our vision and ambition for Truro Cathedral.  How we achieve our vision is as important as the vision itself. Values are the principles that guide our behaviour with one another and our relationship with the outside world.   The following four values we live and work by:

LOVE AND UNITY

Our work is embedded in a spirit of love and cooperation.

DIGNITY AND RESPECT

We embrace similarities and differences and respect those with different or no faith.

ACCOUNTABILITY AND INTEGRITY

We act with honesty and openness.

CREATIVITY AND COURAGE

We are bold when exploring new options and embrace change and development.
