SUMMARY:Blandford Forum Gardeners' Group Launch
DESCRIPTION:The recent donation to the Museum of trophies from the Blandford Horticultural Society\, which closed about 6 years ago\, has inspired the formation of a new group.

It will be open to anyone in Blandford and surrounding villages who is interested in gardening and plants\, both indoors and outdoors. Membership in BFG will be free\, but we will need contact details to send information about talks and events such as plant sales\, shows\, and coffee mornings. \nAt our launch event in the Museum’s Victorian Garden there will be tea\, coffee\, cake and plants for sale.

SUMMARY:Friday Talk: St Leonard's Chapel and Leprosy in Medieval England
DESCRIPTION:Our April talk will be given by Teddy Wilson\, an early career historian from Shillingstone who studied at the University of York and is now a member of the archive and research teams at Blandford Town Museum. \nThe first part of Teddy’s talk will explore medieval ideas about leprosy\, and the experience of being a leper in the period in which the hospital was active. It will discuss how medieval people understood leprosy\, and how its unusual etiology and history put lepers into a unique social position. The second part will give an overview of the present state of research about the chapel\, and the work currently being undertaken by the research group at the museum. \nTeddy specialises in medieval death culture\, and literary representations of belief in the supernatural. They have also worked on medical history and the politics of charity and care in medieval Europe. \nRefreshments will be available from 7 pm\, and the talk will start at 7.30 pm and finish at around 9 pm. \nAdmission £6 (free to Friends and Patrons of the Museum) \n \nWe have a variety of talks about our history and heritage from a range of expert speakers lined up for Spring and Autumn 2025. These will take place on Fridays (usually\, but not always\, the last Friday of the month) at the Parish Centre in Blandford. Please visit our Calendar for information about future talks. \n
