Back in 2015 we were lucky enough to have Sally-Anne Lomas's 'Cloth of Kindness' at the Barn as part of our Julian of Norwich: Compassion and Creativity shewing.

This inspiring Cloth was subsequently exhibited in the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital chapel in 2016 and patients, visitors and staff were invited to sew their own messages of Kindness. These messages are now being sewn into a new Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital Cloth of Kindness which will be exhibited in the Chapel this Easter as the start of a Hospital wide Stitching with Compassion Project.

The NNUH Cloth of Kindness will be on display as a work in progress in the Barn until Sunday 26th February and people are welcome to come and assist in the process of joining the patches together or to have a go at embroidering their own message of kindness onto a patch.

We will be open Thursdays - Sundays 1-4pm.
