Personal life

{{unreferenced section|date=March 2019}}

Grimshaw, nee Neuberger, was born in 1945 and brought up in London. She married John Grimshaw in Africa. Then they settled down in Clifton, Bristol, in a commune-style five-story Georgian town-house. After having their fourth child, John told her he had quit his full-time job to found Cyclebag (now Sustrans), a cycling charity.

In 1983, Grimshaw discovered she had Parkinson's disease. This has not daunted her, with results as the large windows in the refectory in Chester Cathedral.

Stained Glass

Grimshaw trained in the stained glass studio of Joseph Bell and Son in Bristol, founded in the Victorian Gothic Revival. Her art attracted a lot of interest.[1]

Her Parkinsons was getting worse, so the family opened a workshop inside her house.[2] Her masterpiece though was winning the completion to design the Six Days of Creation in the refectory in Chester Cathedral.[3] There was a book about it.[4][5]

Grimshaw is now mainly doing fused-glass work.[6]
