An online talk hosted by the Brentford and Chiswick History Society
New Spring Gardens, Brentford
The impact of the Great War on health and housing in Brentford is to be considered in an online talk hosted by the Brentford and Chiswick Local History Society.
The talk takes place at 7.30pm on Monday, 21 February.
Recent research by Dr Alison Appleby reveals how the Great War brought about changes in the lives of local people. A local resident since 1985, her long career, teaching history, politics and related subjects, includes over 20 years as an Open University tutor. She currently teaches at the City Lit.
As usual there will be no charge to join this event but you should reserve a place via Ticketsource
Zoom details will be sent to ticket holders on the evening of Sunday 20 February, or on Monday. Tickets will be available up to 6.30pm on the day of the talk.
You only need to book one ticket per screen, even if you will be watching with a friend.

Articles such as the one above are integral to what we do. We aim to feature as much as possible on local societies, charities based in the area, fundraising efforts by residents, community-based initiatives and even helping people find missing pets. We’ve always done that and won’t be changing, in fact we’d like to do more. However, the readership that these stories generates is often below that needed to cover the cost of producing them. Our financial resources are limited and the local media environment is intensely competitive so there is a constraint on what we can do. We are therefore asking our readers to consider offering financial support to these efforts. Any money given will help support community and public interest news and the expansion of our coverage in this area. A suggested monthly payment is £8 but we would be grateful for any amount for instance if you think this site offers the equivalent value of a subscription to a daily printed newspaper you may wish to consider £20 per month. If neither of these amounts is suitable for you then contact info@neighbournet.com and we can set up an alternative. All payments are made through a secure web site. One-off donations are also appreciated. Choose The Amount You Wish To Contribute. If you do support us in this way we’d be interested to hear what kind of articles you would like to see more of on the site – send your suggestions to the editor. For businesses we offer the chance to be a corporate sponsor of community content on the site. For £30 plus VAT per month you will be the designated sponsor of at least one article a month with your logo appearing if supplied. If there is a specific community group or initiative you’d like to support we can make sure your sponsorship is featured on related content for a one off payment of £50 plus VAT.
