GHS - SPRING PROGRAMME
25/3/2010
We are pleased to announce that the following TALKS have been scheduled for Spring 2010 are as follows:
28th April – Sylvia White – Memories of Growing Up in 1930s – 40s Blackheath and Greenwich.
Born and brought up in Blackheath, Sylvia White grew up in the 1930’s and 40’s when poverty was rife. She was one of five children who were given freedom to roam. This meant that the Heath and the Park were their playgrounds and they came in contact with children from different classes. Blessed with a vivid memory she has written two books about growing up in this area and her talk will be about those times.
Now an active member of the University of the Third Age, she runs groups encouraging people to preserve their memories.
