On Tuesday as part of the national day of reflection, Dawn Butler MP officially launched the Parliamentary Coronavirus Memorial Quilt.The Project, which has received cross-party support, will see Parliament come together in a sign of unity.
Members of Parliament, Lords and staff across Parliament will contribute a personally designed block. Each block will be sewn together to form a quilt, creating a tapestry of experiences, struggles, loss and love endured during Lockdown.The inspiration came to Ms Butler, after sleepless nights thinking about loss and life, and an urge to commemorate the many stories that might never be otherwise told.
