#covidmemorialwall — Public Fediverse posts

On Friday, we met Dr Josep Grau-Bové, Associate Professor of Heritage Science at #UCL. His students will be looking at the fading rate of hearts, giving us meaningful data for the Wall's long-term future enabling us to prepare relevant strategies. #WalkTheWall #HeritageScience #CovidMemorialWall #MakeTheWallPermanent

We are so lucky that one of our volunteers is a superb baker - she spoils us every week! We love the #heart shape of these shortbread biscuits...

Loved doing this podcast with My Time Capsule. I talk about love, covid grief, the Covid Memorial Wall, the Homeric poems - and law-breaking great aunts.... 😊❤️

What a beautiful night at the #CovidMemorialWall, where we lit 2000 candles to remember our beloved lost this #Christmas. #London

On Friday 23rd December from 4.00 pm the Friends of the Wall volunteers - all of whom are covid-bereaved - will be placing LED candles along the length of the memorial wall to remember those missing from our festive celebrations. Please join us if you can, and help us light up the wall!

For those who can’t make it, the event will be live-streamed on our #Instagram account.

It’s not all frozen fingers and paint-spattered clothes when volunteering restoring hearts at the #CovidMemorialWall - sometimes there are cupcakes!

When your fellow volunteer at the @CovidMemorialUK in #London makes a present for you that is so thoughtful (a replica of my husband's painted heart) you tear up every time you look at it... 🥹 #CovidMemorialUk #CovidMemorialWall

Volunteers at the #CovidMemorialWall were pleased to welcome Baroness Nicky Morgan (chair of the UK Commission on Covid Commemoration) today and to share this beautiful tribute to our beloved dead. We are asking for the wall to be made permanent, and hope you will too. You have til December 5 to share your thoughts with the commission: https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/covid-commemoration-consultation

It’s #GivingTuesday and this incredibly generous #Etsy seller is offering this beautiful, customisable print for sale with all profits going to the #CovidMemorialWall. ❤️❤️❤️

Some days volunteering at the #CovidMemorialWall are more heartbreaking than others…

#introduction The #CovidMemorialWall runs between #Westminster Bridge and #Lambeth Bridge on the banks of the #Thames in #London, facing the Houses of #Parliament. It is maintained by a handful of dedicated, bereaved #volunteers who paint and restore #hearts and write dedications, one for each person in the UK who has died of #covid. Come and walk the wall - a powerful and moving experience.
