Visitors flock to the Sanctuary in Bedworth

Available for over a year

A temporary memorial to victims of the Covid-19 pandemic has seen thousands of people being adorning the structure with messages and mementoes. The 20m (65ft) work called Sanctuary will be open until Saturday May 28th at the Miner's Welfare Park in Bedworth, Warwickshire before it is set alight that night at 9pm. The memorial was designed by artist David Best, known for his large-scale intricately carved structures at the Burning Man festival in the United States . Sanctuary was built in collaboration with members of the local community in North Warwickshire and created by Artichoke and Imagineer. BBC CWR's Ushma Mistry went along to visit
