We’re incredibly sorry to share news of the passing of one of our volunteers, Kate Meldon.
Kate started with the Museum in May 2019 when she joined an informal group specifically to support the development of the Gospel Car interpretation on site.
During her 7 years with the Museum, Kate brought an abundance of knowledge, mostly from personal experience and involvement with the Methodist movement, towards the storytelling of the Gospel Car and Providence Chapel. It’s fair to say that the presence of the Gospel Car on site wouldn’t be what it is today without Kate’s generous contribution.
Our thoughts are with Kate’s husband Michael and their family at this sad time.
If colleagues wish to send their condolences or would like to know the funeral details, please contact the People Team via [email protected] or 0121 557 9643.
