The Harding family has a long history with Allhallows. Jeremy Harding attended Allhallows in the 1960s, while Ralph was a pupil in the 1930s and 40s along with his brothers. Ralph, who is now 97 years old, is the Father of the OH Club.

At the West Country Lunch, it was a delight to see both of them in attendance. Here is an excerpt from the interview where Jeremy interviews his Uncle Ralph about the move from Honiton to Rousdon.

We will be publishing the full interview soon.

The 2024 OH West Country Luncheon was an absolute delight!

We enjoyed a fabulous turnout and it was heartwarming to see so many Old Honitonians together laughing and sharing stories. Below are some snapshots from the afternoon that capture these joyous moments.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to our esteemed guest, Mr. Blooman, and to General Sir Roger Wheeler, who graced us with the opening prayer.

A special thanks also to Nigel French for his expert supporting Victoria Berry in handling the seating arrangements, and to Duncan and the entire team at the Victoria Hotel for their impeccable support, wonderful food and service.

Look forward to a detailed recount of this memorable gathering in the 2024 edition of the OH Magazine.

We're incredibly fortunate to have such a vibrant community. Thank you all for making the West Country Luncheon a success!
