This year’s HGS Trust Members’ Winter Lecture will be held at the Henrietta Barnett School on Monday 13 December starting at 6.30pm for a 7pm start.

“George Cadbury and Bournville Village Trust”

A talk by Duncan Cadbury, former Chair and Trustee of the Bournville Village Trust.

The first section of this illustrated talk will focus on George Cadbury’s early years, his family, where he lived and his introduction to the chocolate business.

Duncan will then talk about some of George’s activities beyond making chocolate – as philanthropist rather than businessman and as founder of the Bournville Village Trust in 1900.

In the main part of the presentation Duncan will outline the early years of Bournville through to the present time, showing how George’s legacy vision and values live on.

This is a Members’ event. Anyone living in Hampstead Garden Suburb can become a Member free of charge. Application forms are online here, and Membership lasts three years. If you’d like to check your Membership status, email us: [email protected]
