Thursday 10th January

Old Orwellian London Reception, House of Lords, Westminster

170 Old Orwellians and their partners attended the first Old Orwellian London Reception for four years. The event held at the House of Lords was very kindly hosted by Lord Prior (1936-1941), Old Orwellian, former parent and current grandparent.

Seventy years separated the youngest Old Orwellian, Mr Sam Tuke (1993-2000) with the oldest Lt Col Nesbitt (1930-1936). Much reminiscing took place and contact was rekindled between old friends and classmates. All ages were represented with many attending their first ever Old Orwellian event. Let’s hope that this was the first of many. Thank you to all those that attended and we look forward to welcoming you to more events in the future.
