Old Stamfordian Dinner 2020
Following Government regulations, the 182nd meeting and dinner of the London Old Stamfordian Club was held on November 11 2020 in Woodford Green, with Ian Brassington, Club Chairman, as the only attendee.Due to lockdown restrictions in place in England throughout November, Ian Brassington was the sole member of the committee able to attend the dinner, upholding annual appropriate formalities including making an entry to the register, holding the Loyal and Silent toasts, as well as toasting Stamford School.Throughout the year, the London OS committee planned to host the dinner in various formats permitted throughout the developing Covid 19 restrictions, including an event for 30 members, a virtual event, and an outdoor dinner for the six committee members. Faced with new restrictions in November, with the dinner due to be held on Armistice Day, the most appropriate format of an in-person dinner with a sole attendee was settled upon.The club hope to arrange an informal, virtual event prior to Christmas, bringing the community together again.For more news from the Alumni of the Stamford Schools, please click here.
