Having photos of loved ones we've lost start to fade with no hope of recapturing them can be devastating.  

Why not join us in Canterbury on the 4th June where we can scan your pictures forever.

Do you keep a particular photograph of a loved one who has passed away close to you? What is its story and how do you look after it? The workshop provides a safe space in which to share a photograph of a loved one. We can help make a copy of your significant photograph.
