About This Event

The Museum of the Order of St John invites you to a unique Talk and Tea event on Thursday 13 August, commencing at 12:30pm. This complimentary session will feature Marleen, the National Collections Manager, who will illuminate the fascinating life of Charles Hanmer. Hanmer, a somewhat overlooked historical figure, carved out a notable niche through his diverse endeavours. Attendees will gain insight into his significant contributions to the mining industry, his passionate advocacy for the principles of first aid, and his pioneering involvement in the nascent world of early cinema. It presents a splendid opportunity to uncover a less commonly celebrated facet of history, all within the evocative and atmospheric surroundings of the museum.
