About

The legend of Lady Godiva and the history of the Coventry are going to be forgotten. That is why the Godiva Association was set up. The Godiva Association uses the talents, learning and experience of anyone ready to be associated with its aims. It works to support teachers, writers, artists, musicians, dance choreographers and technicians in bringing imagination, reflection and challenge to all participating groups and individuals. Through workshops and extended projects the Godiva Association mounts public events and performances to raise awareness of heritage and of diverse cultures within Coventry. The Godiva Association supports Pru Porretta, who is a member of the official recognised bodies of Equity & an associate member of Institute of Registered Tour Guides (ITG). In her role as present day Lady Godiva, Pru invites different cultural, religious and ethnic communities to choose their heroine. They work with the Godiva Association to prepare music, dance, costume, umbrellas and banners to celebrate their heroines as Godiva Sisters. Thanks to the Godiva Association website people will find a lot of information about Godiva Association organisation, learn about Lady Godiva legend, the city of Coventry history and its monuments. People will also have opportunity to see Pru festivals and tours.
