Centenary Display
Carlisle Council for
Voluntary Service (CVS) officially launches a display in the Millenium Gallery
at Tullie House this week to celebrate its centenary year (1904 - 2004).
A small group of CVS Trustees have been researching key events over the
last 100 years and will open the display with Matthew Constantine, the curator
for social history at Tullie House.
The display will be on show
throughout the year and new items will be added as research progresses into the
history of Carlisle CVS and voluntary sector activity over the last 100 years.
CVS trustees are appealing
to Carlisle organisations and local people to look through their own records and
photographs for items which could be loaned to the display.
Lynne Sneap, Chief
Officer at Carlisle CVS said
" This display is a
great opportunity to showcase the achievements of voluntary activity over the
last 100 years and also a great chance for local people to take part in the
celebrations. The research and photographs gathered will be used to feature in a
commemorative booklet CVS are publishing later in the year."
Anyone who wishes to
contribute to either the display or the booklet should contact Carlisle CVS at
27 Spencer Street, Carlisle. Telephone 01228 512513.
