History Of Table
The first Round Table was formed in
Round Table owes nothing to Arthurian Legend, deriving both its title and its maxim from a speech made to the British Industries Fair in 1927 by the then Prince of Wales - "The young business and professional men of this country must get together round the table, ADOPT methods that have proved so sound in the past, ADAPT them to the changing needs of the times and wherever possible, IMPROVE them". The design of the Round Table emblem is, however, an adaptation of the table which hangs in the great hall,
Round Table has used the motto of Adopt, Adapt and improve to make it an organisation which is still relevant in the 21st century.
Whilst it is an old organisation, we've shaken off much of the formality, and are modern, dynamic and friendly. Come and see for yourself.
