Local Churches

Dunblane Cathedral works alongside other churches in Dunblane - St Blane's Church, St Mary's Scottish Episcopal Church, Church of the Holy Family, Dunblane Free Church and others.

Ukraine

It is hard to watch each news bulletin on the human tragedy that is unfolding in Ukraine at present, and it is easy to feel helpless in the face of the grief, fear and danger faced by the Ukrainian people remaining in their homeland as it comes under attack from Russian armed forces, and the sorrow, exhaustion and uncertainty of those who have fled their homeland without knowing where they will go.

Our midweek service is held in the Cathedral Halls each Wednesday at 11.00am, where we will pray for our world and our community, and continue praying for peace in Ukraine.

We are also encouraging people to give financial support the DEC (Disasters Emergency Committee) Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal. Working with other major aid agencies, including Christian Aid and the British Red Cross, DEC will be helping to provide, food, water, shelter and medical assistance to the people of Ukraine.

Dunblane's Leighton Library

Robert Leighton is commemorated within Dunblane Cathedral as one of the key figures on the pulpit telling the story of the history of Dunblane Cathedral, and also the magnificent carved reredos of the Leighton Screen filling the wall behind the Communion Table, depicting the seven corporal acts of mercy. You can find out more in this post about the restoration of Dunblane's historic Leighton Library which was the bequest to Dunblane of Robert Leighton - click HERE to view the videos.

To commemorate 30 years of the Flentrop organ in Dunblane Cathedral, we are delighted to offer a meticulously selected and beautiful CD of Danish works on this magnificent instrument.

"Hymne til Ærø" takes its title from a work of the same name composed by Kevin Duggan, Dunblane Cathedral's Director of Music, after his time living on the Danish island of Ærø. The piece is one of two world-premiere recordings of his music featured on this release.

For local residents in Dunblane and Doune, there is an option to purchase CDs for £10 and have them delivered by hand for free, available HERE

For addresses further away, there is an option to have the CDs sent by post for £12 including post and packing by clicking HERE
