The next meeting will be on 13th October 2026 Royston Town Hall at 2.00 pm Subject:Great Exhibition of 1851. Speaker : Steve Dimmer
The first Great Exhibition of the Victorian age was in 1851. The brainchild of Prince Albert, it attracted as many critics as it had enthusiasts. Ultimately it was an amazing success, its profits financing many other projects that are still with us. This talk examines the exhibition's origins, its content and its legacy.

Reg Hounsell is looking for a couple of Royston U3A members to assist with organsing the group.
Reg is also looking for speakers who might be members of Royston U3A (or not) to give talks of a historical nature, for up to one hour, to the group. Kathy Hounsell also needs help with providing refreshments.
