The Chairman of the Thomas & Elizabeth Mayhook Charity, on a recent visit to Arundel in Sussex met with the new Archbishop of Westminster, The Most Reverend Richard Moth, leader of the Catholic Church in England & Wales who recently took over from His Eminence Cardinal Vincent Nicholls. Richard recalls that he was very interested in the work of the charity especially that between 1842 and 1852 almost a thousand Catholics were buried in St David’s Cemetery until St Mary’s Church and cemetery had been built and consecrated in 1852.
Also, the Charity is pleased to announce that it has appointed an additional Trustee to strengthen the “Team” going forward. Mr Christopher Crowley, a local “boy” with great interest in supporting local good causes and charities takes up his role with immediate effect and looks forward to supporting the Trustees in their efforts to ensure the upkeep, maintenance and restoration of the cemetery continues.
