Octavia Hill Lecture

The third Octavia Hill Lecture in collaboration with Times Radio will take place on 1 April 2025 at The Royal Society in London. Professor Alice Roberts, anatomist, biological anthropologist, author and broadcaster, will deliver this year’s lecture.
 
Professor Roberts will journey into the past to explore connections between people and landscape to ask ‘Where do we come from? What are we? Where are we going?’. The lecture will look at how science is transforming our understanding of history – and our own connection with the past, with nature and each other.
Following the lecture, Professor Roberts will be in conversation with Dr Gus Casley-Hayford OBE, Director of V&A East. More details on how you can catch up with both events will be available soon.
