Over 150 people attended our birthday celebration for Mary Shelley at St Peter's church, where she is buried. Everyone received a party hat to get in the mood, with performances from Kevan Manwaring and Christy Fearn. The Shelley Trust founder Katherine Edgar hosted a Question & Answer session and Brad Gyori finished the event talking about the Shelley Heart interactive story.
