This is a photo of a communal grave (a total of 16) dedicated to lay members of the Franciscan Order (Terzjarji Franġiskani) originating from Sliema.

The writing underneath St Francis’s statue reads: Qui riposano le ossa dei Terziari Frangeskani di SLIEMA, indicating the deceased ex-members from Sliema. I have noted over the years that this area, including the statue itself, is in a dilapidated state, and an upgrading would be in order. For example, the statue’s steel reinforcement is exposed at the head, which only encourages more deterioration.

Can anyone responsible to maintain with due care this communal grave give it some attention?
