Volunteers are working in the church of St George, Colegate, Norwich to clean and conserve the wall monuments, thanks to funding from King Charles III Charitable Fund.
 



Under the leadership of Deborah Carthy, a conservator who has worked in many of the country’s finest buildings, a group from the congregation and friends and members of The Matthew Project have been working for two years to clean and conserve floor and wall monuments. The project has been boosted by a grant form the King Charles III Charitable Fund which will enable the work to proceed for the next three years.

Jane Kennedy, Fabric Officer at the church said, "We are hugely boosted by the award of this grant, and we look forward to continuing our work and being joined by volunteers who can be trained to assist in this important work.’ Work starts again in July, and anyone interested in finding out more can contact jane.kennedy@outlook.com.
