RSTMH President’s Garden Party

RSTMH members were invited to join Professor Gail Davey and the RSTMH team at the first President’s Garden Party in London.

Following more than a year of virtual meetings, this event provided a long-awaited opportunity to reconnect in person with some of our members and Fellows.

Professor Sally Theobald delivered the first President’s Lecture — a new annual address nominated by the current President, replacing the traditional Christmas lecture. The topic of Professor Theobald’s talk was "Neglected contexts in global health: analysing and addressing intersecting inequities."

We also announced our latest Honorary Fellow.

The event took place outdoors in the beautiful garden at the British Medical Association in central London. Speeches were held inside the Garden Room, with social distancing observed.

The event was free for members and Fellows to attend, with suggested donation options to help cover costs. Attendees were welcome to bring a guest for a fee of £30 (limited places available).
