Bristol Cathedral is honoured to display the Grenfell Memorial Quilt, a moving tribute to all those affected by the Grenfell Tower disaster. Created by Bristol Star Stitchers, the 12ft x 12ft quilt honours the 72 people who died in the fire on 14 June 2017, as well as those who survived, were injured, or lost their homes. It forms part of a nationwide memorial project inspired by a call from relatives and friends of those affected, with around 90 panels created by groups across the UK ahead of the disaster’s tenth anniversary in 2027. The Bristol quilt is also a story of community. Made from recycled fabrics collected from charity shops and other sources, it brought together more than 30 people of all ages and levels of sewing experience. What began as small gatherings in people’s homes grew into a shared endeavour at the Vassall Community Hub in Fishponds, where friendships were formed and skills, stories and countless hours were shared. At the heart of the quilt are 72 embroidered stars, each bearing the name and age of a person who died. Families and loved ones are stitched close together, reflecting the lives, relationships and communities behind the headlines. Flowers and foliage symbolise hope and renewal, while the tower itself stands as a reminder that those affected must not be forgotten. Visitors are warmly invited to spend time with this remarkable artwork, remember those who were lost, and reflect on the power of communities coming together in solidarity.
