General meeting

Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes at Fulham Palace?

Join us for our annual general meeting to discover more about the Trust that cares for this historic site. Hear about the past year’s achievements, exciting projects and what’s planned for the future, with plenty of opportunity to ask questions and meet members of the team over drinks and light refreshments.

The evening concludes with a fascinating guest talk from ecologist and RSPB Conservation Officer Joe Beale. Drawing on his biodiversity survey of Fulham Palace, Joe will reveal the surprising wildlife that can be found in urban parks and gardens, from overlooked species to new arrivals, and share how we can all help support nature closer to home.
