A walk through history and art as a therapeutic force – coming up in March

Walk – The Great Fire of London

Saturday 11th March 11.00

Meet at The City Information Centre, St Paul’s Churchyard EC4M 8BX

Walk some of the fascinating history of the Great Fire of London. You'll see the area where the fire started – now commemorated by a plaque, follow the route that people will have taken trying to escape the fire, including London Bridge, which at that time was the only bridge across the River Thames. Other sites you'll see include the Royal Exchange, Guildhall, Leadenhall Street and St Paul's Cathedral. The Monument was built to commemorate the Great Fire of London.

Monthly Meeting – Art as a therapeutic force

Thursday 16th March 7 for 7.30pm, St. Margaret’s House, Old Ford Rd, E2 9PL 

We welcome Mr Steven Snooks: Surgeon, Barrister, Minister, Artist – 

and West Ham fan!

Steven’s talk will feature a number of his paintings that he has shared with patients over the years. We're sure he will tell us more about his fascinating, multi-faceted life and career.

If the gate is locked when you arrive at St Margaret’s there will be a call bell on the right hand side at the back of the gate.
