Brass rubbing kit; An update on the Marsh Christian Trust prize

Here's an update from Elizabeth on the progress on purchasing the brass rubbing kit, which the team decided was what you wanted to do with the £400 Marsh Trust "Volunteer Team of the Year" award. 

We can buy a "starter" pack,which includes a selection of small and medium brasses, black paper, various coloured wax-gold, silver, copper-erasers and masking tape, plus brass rubbing leaflets, history of all the included brasses, and some"How to do a brass rubbing" booklets. There is usually a 4 week delivery time. We are also hoping, if we have enough money left, to get a replica brass made of Thomas Rowley. A quote for the cost of a replica can be made from a clear black on white drawing, which Charlotte is going to do for us when she gets back from Copenhagen. We are hoping this brass replica will be @18x12 inches-we can choose the size.
