Lecture Engagements

At present, my life as the marketing director of GWS keeps me so busy that once again I have not had time to circulate schools.

However I would be very pleased to hear from anyone who would like me to give a lecture during the 2008/2009 season, and I will add details of any lecture engagements as they come in:

March 2009
[Provisional]
Thursday 12 March Burgess Hill School for Girls
Lawrence of Arabia

I hope this is helpful, and look forward to hearing from you when you have completed the booking form.

With all best wishes from

Richard Perceval Graves
