A photo taken at St Boniface, Bunbury, one of eight Haberdasher Company parishes, has been chosen by the Duchess of Cambridge to appear in the exhibition 'Hold Still', a selection of photos taken throughout the country during lockdown, at the National Portrait Gallery. |
"When it was announced church buildings were to be closed to the public to reduce the transmission of the virus, I wanted to assure our community that, although we couldn't gather physically, their photos in church were a symbol that they, and their loved ones, were still very much in our thoughts and prayers." Reverend Tim Hayward |
The Hold Still digital exhibition is available to view online at www.npg.org.uk/holdstill from 14 September 2020. |
