On 20 September, LSHH conservationist Leah Warriner-Wood spoke at an event celebrating 200 years since the birth of Charles Frederick Worth, in Bourne, Lincolnshire. Leah's talk, "Threads of History", introduced the role conservators play in preserving the stories that objects tell about the past.

A statement in support of our colleagues in National Trust properties and conservation studios around the country. #conservation #culturalheritage #heritage #objectconservation #conservator #textileconservation #textileconservator #objectsconservation #nationaltrust @jimchesh.bsky.social
