Last Reunion
The last Reunion of the Shaw Savill Society is taking place this weekend at the Grand Harbour Hotel, Southampton. This was scheduled for 2020 but was cancelled due to Covid. We are expecting around 140. Sadly there is quite a few who booked two years ago won’t be with us. We will be welcoming the spouses of those who have crossed the Bar.

Re: Last Reunion
Dear Mr. Gallagher,
When you say 'last' reunion due you mean 'latest' or does this mean 'the final' reunion meeting?
Regards,
Adrian Featherstonhaugh

Re: Last Reunion
Hi Adrian
The Reunion in May 2022 was the Final Reunion for the Shaw Savill Society in UK, originally planned for May 2020 but delayed due the pandemic.
The NZ Branch held their Final Reunion in Auckland in 2018.
The UK Society held reunions every year since the first one in Bristol in 1985, in NZ, we had reunions every alternative year with the Australian Branch till it eventually closed about 20 years ago, and many Australians joined the NZ Branch.
Cheers Jamie
Shaw Savill Society NZ
