St. Seraphim’s Trust is a registered charity that seeks to keep St. Seraphim’s Pilgrim Chapel open for all pilgrims and visitors to Walsingham, of all faiths and none, as a place of worship and mission.

The Trust also aims to make its rich icon, railway and pilgrimage heritage available to the public, through displays and activities.

St. Seraphim’s is currently in the process of developing the garden into an environment which will reflect the spirituality of the chapel.

St Seraphim’s chapel has witnessed 44 years of traditional Orthodox icon painting by the iconographers Father David and Leon Liddament. Their ability to make a living from iconography was due to Walsingham  being a pilgrimage centre, enabling them to become well known by priests and other visitors and their work to be in demand.  St. Seraphim’s has always been a part of this tradition of pilgrimage, having been the ‘pilgrim station’, and is still part of the experience of many visitors to the village today.  Part of Father David and Leon’s mission was to increase awareness of early British Saints  through their icons and published information.

St. Seraphim’s Trust is a charitable foundation relying on donations and support. Work for which we require funding for includes our ongoing development of the garden and major building repairs.

Essential in securing our future is the need for volunteers in all aspects of the work we are carrying out. Anyone with any amount of time available would be welcome so please get in touch if this is something you may be interested in and get involved.
