The Bishop of Sheffield, the Right Reverend Jack Nicholls, will preach at the Choral Evensong service which will include hymns sung at Diana’s funeral.

Representatives from local charities whom Diana supported have been invited to attend the service which will feature the National Anthem, and the Pie Jesu from Faure’s Requiem.

A prayer written by the Archbishop of Canterbury to mark the 10th anniversary will also be used and worshippers will have the opportunity to light candles in remembrance of the Princess of Wales.

Mr Bradley said: “This is an opportunity to remember someone who was significant to many people, including those who never met her.

“It’s also an opportunity to give thanks for the charitable work which she undertook.”

The service will take place on Friday, August 31, at 6pm.
