Hope Church
Trinity Street
WeymouthDT4 8TW
This talk, presented by Stuart McLeod, will look at the life and times of Sir Henry Edwards MP (1820 – 1897). Sir Henry was Weymouth’s former MP from 1867 until 1885. Sir Henry became one of the town’s greatest benefactors and his name and many benefactions lives on today through Weymouth Town Charities.
Stuart moved to Weymouth in 1995 to become headteacher of Southwell Primary School on Portland. He later became one of the joint interim Principals of the Academy. After retiring he has since returned to teaching as a Teaching Assistant at a Weymouth primary school. He is a trustee of Weymouth Town Charities and spends as much available time as possible researching the Charities’ two principal benefactors, Sir Samuel Mico and Sir Henry Edwards.
The talk will be held in Hope United Reformed Church at 8 Trinity Street. Tea & biscuits will be served from 2pm and the talk will begin at 2.30pm.
Tickets will be available on the door and are £2.00 for members of the Friends and £3.00 for visitors. (Exact change would be appreciated, if possible).
