Biografie

The Guild of Memorial Craftsmen was established in 1949. Its aim and objectives were:
-To use its best endeavours and to do everything to the best of its ability to raise the Standard of Memorial design and craftsmanship and disseminate knowledge in relation thereto.
-To publish and circulate to the general public and in particular to Ecclesiastical and Cemetery Authorities brochures and literature.
-To use its best endeavours to promote by all suitable means the education of public taste in the matter of improved design and craftsmanship and to hold meetings with this aim in view.
-To do everything it legitimately can to further the interest of its members and to employ its funds for that purpose.

The Guild's business, including election of members, was run by a court. The court was elected annually at the AGM and consisted of not more than 12 Guildsmen including the Master and the Warden. Membership was open to all practising sculptors, carvers and memorial craftsmen.
