The Master’s Year
Alastair Marsh, a PhD student at the
University of Bath was awarded the Royal
Charter Research Award for his pioneering
work on the use of sustainable earth
blocks in construction.
Our final formal event of the year was the Sir Christopher Wren Banquet, which was held in the august surroundings of
Fishmongers’ Hall on 6 June 2019. The Banquet is the culmination of the Company Year, and this year’s banquet was no
exception.
The guests at the banquet were welcomed by the Senior Warden – Sir Vivian Ramsey, who managed to make even a list
sound interesting.
The Master used the occasion of the banquet to present a cheque for £10,000 to
the CLIC Sargent Cancer Charity for their “Home away from Home” initiative, and we
were pleased to invite Mr Keith Exford CBE, a Trustee of the Charity, and
Rachel Kirby–Ryder the Charity’s Director of Income and Engagement to join us at
the banquet.
