Held annually in July at the St. Bride Foundation Institute (off Fleet Street), this popular event has attracted many u3a members over the years from across London and further afield. Compiled by Jo Livingston, u3a Subject Advisor for Living History. Click on link to view the Summer School Digital Booklet.
