The philanthropist, novelist and biographer Lady Georgiana Fullerton (1812 - 1885) was a regular worshipper here, and was also the founder of St Walburga's School in Bournemouth which still survives, albeit on a new site. Completed in 1875, Sacred Heart was Bournemouth's first Roman Catholic church that reopened in 2013 after an extensive £270,000 restoration. Image
