This event has passed

It is a privilege to hold a Reception and Supper at the Grade I listed Trinity House on the eve of Trafalgar Day to commemorate the anniversary of the victory of Admiral Horatio Lord Nelson in 1805 over the combined French and Spanish fleets. The safety of shipping and the well-being of seafarers have been the prime concerns of Trinity House since being incorporated by Royal Charter in 1514. Trinity House is a charity whose headquarters has been on this site since 1796 and incorporates the maintenance of lighthouses around our coast.

We welcome our speaker Commodore Toby Williamson who has had a glittering career in the Royal Navy including time as Equerry to the Queen and is presently Clerk to the Worshipful Company of Fishmongers who will, no doubt, have many tales to tell!

We will enjoy a sparkling reception followed by a splendid three-course dinner with wine. The evening will conclude with port and speeches.

This event follows our welcoming ceremony for new members, who may wish to continue their celebrations by attending this lovely dinner.

If this event is over-subscribed and a ballot will be held on the allocation date.
