Norwich Cathedral marks 1,000 Covid-19 victims A poignant memorial inside Norwich Anglican Cathedral bears silent witness to the more than 1,000 people who have now died from Covid-19 across Norfolk. The terrible milestone was passed over the weekend and with each sad death due to the pandemic, a tiny cross has been added to the memorial, surrounding a lit candle. Rev Canon Andy Bryant, the Cathedral’s canon for mission and pastoral care, began placing the crosses last June and said it had been heart-rending to have to place so many more since the start of the year. He told the EDP: Last week I added 180 crosses. It is the strangest feeling when I am kneeling there.
