“And I also remember when we had a customer, an older gentleman, come in who was very shocked – he’d seen a figure come through the wall. We had to sit him down and get him a glass of water to calm him down.”
The photograph taken in the cloisters by 15-year-old Rachel was given to Caroline by the student’s mother, Gwen, who was a volunteer at the Cathedral shop.

Love West Norfolk campaign: So many heroes in our community
Love West Norfolk column, by Lorraine Gore, borough council chief executive
When I wrote my last column, in March last year, the borough council had just launched our summer events season but, unfortunately, days later the first national lockdown was announced.
Now we find ourselves in a new year and in another necessary lockdown.
