COVID-19 Day of Reflection 2026

On Sunday 8 March, councillors from Epsom & Ewell Borough Council placed knitted and crafted heart tributes on COVID‑19 memorial benches across the borough as part of the national COVID‑19 Day of Reflection.
The heart tribute initiative seemed to resonate with many of our local residents, offering a powerful reminder of the love, loss and community connection felt throughout the pandemic.
Thank you to those of you who visited the benches and engaged with our councillors, and also Conquest Art, The Yarn Bombers and all our local crafters for their heartfelt contributions.
Visit our website - 2026 COVID-19 Day of Reflection | Epsom and Ewell Borough Council. - to find out the location of the benches with heart tributes. 💛
