St Mary’s Church, Beddington

Philippa was Freelance Activity Plan Coordinator for the 2 year National Lottery Heritage Funded Project: Restoring and Celebrating the Arts of Craftsmanship of St Mary’s Church, Beddington.

Across the project, she developed and led a wide range of engagement projects and activities in consultation with the St Mary’s PCC.

Her proudest moment was leading the Royal Female Orphanage Oral History and Exhibition Project with support from Sutton Archives and Honeywood Museum.
