St Julian is a medieval feminist in my opinion.  A 14th century Norwich woman, she experienced a series of extraordinary visions.  She then became an Anchoress, locking herself away in a small cell attached to a church in Norwich.  In this cell, she became the first woman to write a book in English

You can visit the church and her cell for free, or the visitor information centre to find out more her history and context, and read books in the library - They may make you a cup of tea and give you a little hazelnut if you stay long enough!  The shrine also has a secret churchyard garden, a green oasis in the city

The Church is open every day: 9am - 6pm
The Visitor Centre is open Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday: 10am - 3:30pm

Hello and Welcome

 

Hi, I'm Sophie, AKA bestthingsinlife

Welcome to my website.

I try to find out about all the free stuff that's happening in and around Norwich, and share them with everyone I can.

I am currently (Autumn 2026) coming back to this website after a long break (since before Lockdown!), so please bear with me as I get to grips with the tech again.

if you have a free event you'd like me to publicise on this website, please email me 

freestufftodoinnorwich@gmail.com, with a photo / poster, basic details of where and when, a brief paragraph (no more then a few lines), and a website to link to.

I do this website in my spare time, after my job and other hobbies, so please don't expect an immediate reply

InterFaith Link

 Norwich InterFaith Link

Norwich InterFaith Link is a meeting point for people of diverse religions, cultures and communities, to share experiences and beliefs. In new friendships and shared concerns, bonds of trust are born. We meet monthly, usually the third Tuesday, for talks on challenging topics, discussions on issues of common concern, with occasional visits or other activities.
