As in previous years, the Heritage Centre takes an active part in this City wide event. This year’s theme celebrates the Olympics with the Heritage Centre looking at the year 1948 – when the Olympics were last staged in London. There is free admission to the Exhibition area which will feature:

• Displays of local sporting memorabilia

• Children’s Olympic craft activities

• 1940’s games

The ground floor Coffee Shop will have 1940’s ‘Specials’ on the menu and on Sunday there will be a 1940’s Tea Dance.

Guided Spire climbs will be available during the weekend (sorry no children under 10 years. A small charge applies – e.g. £2.75 adult).

Judge Mark Eades has been a County Court Judge for 10 years and a Barrister for over 20 years. This is a rare opportunity to meet a Circuit Court Judge and to gain an insight into the challenges and responsibilities of his working life. Although not permitted to wear his robes outside of Court he will be bringing them to show us.

The evening concludes with a cheese & biscuits supper including a glass of wine.
