Kate Stockwell ACR

I am an experienced Textile Conservator who has been working in the field for over 30 years. I have a small but well equipped studio in North Leeds. I am a sole practitioner but occasionally collaborate with other colleagues. I also undertake onsite work. I particularly enjoy exhibition work and costume mounting.

I treat a variety of textiles and textile related objects. Clients include small regional museums, northern city councils and the National Trust. I do work for private individuals and offer free consultations if clients are able to bring objects to me.
