All the proceeds from the dinner will go towards the Cathedral’sPeterborough 900 Campaign, which is raising funds for projects which will enable the Cathedral to offer a more hospitable space to its visitors and worshippers, leading up to its 900th anniversary in 2018.
Sir John held the position of Prime Minister from 1990 until 1997. As a Member of Parliament he represented the constituency of Huntingdon from 1979 until 2001.
