Holy Trinity Cemetery and Gardens:
Love Your Burial Ground Week/Churches Count on Nature
6-14 June 2026
Holy Trinity Activities
Holy Trinity is now registered on the ‘Caring for God’s Acre’ website (caringforgodsacre.org.uk) for their Burial Ground/Nature Week, 6-14 June 2026. Interest in this link stems from our Eco Church A Rocha (arocha.org.uk) activities and our on-going work to achieve Bronze level A Rocha accreditation.
Self-guided (Activités Libres)
Via these website affiliations anyone interested is invited in this
June period to visit our Cemetery. This may simply be to pay a short casual visit or, as we propose, to engage either in a Self-Guided Historic Walk or a Drop-in Nature Count using iNaturalist.
Drawing Outdoors (Dessiner en Plein Air)
Additionally we are offering an Adult Sketching afternoon in the
Cemetery inviting Holy Trinity church members and others to join and undertake a piece of artwork, for example a drawing or painting, in the church grounds. This will start around 12:30 Sunday June 14 after the 11am Service. It will be led by Helen Barraja.
The sketching afternoon will be open to everyone of every level (raw beginners to talented artists). It’s a moment to relax and create a souvenir of a place and time. If you wish to enrol for the sketching please inform Keith Paterson ([email protected]) by June 13th.
Kids (Enfants)
Children attending church are also encouraged to participate in the
artwork project on Sunday 14th but must be accompanied by a family member. They should also, if possible, bring their own equipment, eg pencils, paints, etc. However, the Church has a small number of these items to lend, if needed. Paper will be made available.
