Dear Members,
I hope you have all had a good summer, with some much-needed time off and are (nearly) ready to kick off the 2024/25 Season of the Club. I have big shoes to fill after Jess’ fantastic season, and I know the Council and all of you will continue to support the Club by bringing your brilliant guests and sharing ideas and feedback.
I will share a little more on my thinking for the season, when we meet on September 4th at Claridge’s.
Now to our first guest speaker, I am so excited to announce that Tom Ilube CBE, Tech entrepreneur & educator will join us. Tom is the CEO of Crossword, Chair of the RFU, Chair African Gifted Foundation, ASA, Non Exec Director WPP, Fellow Jesus College & St Anne’s Oxford Uni and, since 31st July 2024, Chair of the Prince’s Trust.
I am sure you and your guests look forward to hearing from Tom and enjoy what promises to be a great evening.
We have decided to start a little earlier than usual with drinks at 19:00 and dinner at 19:45 to aim to finish by 22:00 latest
Looking forward to seeing you all in September.
Kind regards
Alessandra
