“RNLI Timeline” by Roy Meakin(note: - this will be held at the Hallfold URC schoolroom)

It’s hard to believe that this most British of institutions has been in existence for 200 years. Although boats kept specifically for saving lives at sea can be traced back as early as 1777, it was not until 1824 that Sir William Hillary founded the institution that we know today. Roy tells us the history of this much admired organisation.

Please note - Please check the venue for this meeting before you attend using the website link below or by contacting the Secretary. Some meetings will be held in the Hallfold URC schoolroom as it has a far greater capacity than the museum.

Whitworth Historical Society have a programme of monthly lectures, which are usually held on the first Wednesday in every month, between the months of October and June, at 7.30pm.

Visit the link below for a list of upcoming talks/lectures.

Entry fee: Free but donations welcome
