Broderers' Guild

The Broderers' Guild is a dedicated group of volunteers who have been looking after the Cathedral’s stunning textiles since 1998. Their needlework skills are very much admired and they also do specialist work for other churches and organisations across the country.

The Broderers’ Guild offers its services to parishes and private individuals in the Diocese of Norwich and beyond, providing restoration expertise, alterations or repairs to existing work, as well as designing and making new items such as chasubles, stoles and frontals.

It is a completely bespoke service and we offer free 15 minute consultations at the workshop for any group or individual exploring the possibilities. Site visits can be made for an additional charge.
