On 20 September, LSHH conservationist Leah Warriner-Wood spoke at an event celebrating 200 years since the birth of Charles Frederick Worth, in Bourne, Lincolnshire. Leah's talk, "Threads of History", introduced the role conservators play in preserving the stories that objects tell about the past.

Our third year student conservators started out on the final road to graduation today: their degree show module! Watch this space for details of the campus-based and online exhibitions, coming your way in June. In the meantime, enjoy these photos of objects that featured in last year's exhibition.

A wooden box with a tattered paper label stuck to the front, and a leather strap draped over the lid from back to front.

An open paper notepad, with handwritten notes on the pages, and extra scraps of paper stuffed into the front cover flap.

A kneeling ceramic figure of the biblical figure Joseph, wearing a long yellow robe and a burgundy cloak.
