Aim

I am looking to raise money towards creating a memorial for the victims of the witch hunt in Manningtree, Lawford and Mistley.


I'd like to see a memorial or plaque dedicated in the local area of Manningtree, Lawford and Mistley to the women who died at the hands of the witch hunts... I have found a list of all their names... If there isn't anything, would anyone be keen on working with me to get something put in place?
