Join us for a series of descriptive talks and object handling exploring key objects in the collection.

Join Maggie Sotiriou, to explore a St John Ambulance Brigade Trophy which is in the form of a terracotta carving representing the Biblical Good Samaritan. Awarded annually to St John Ambulance districts who showed a “Spirit of Emulation in First Aid”, it dates from 1903 and is displayed in the Museum galleries. The session includes the opportunity to handle other First Aid Trophies.
