Annual Report 2020-2021

Trustees had determined to retain the 2019-2020 budget surplus for future projects designed to have substantial impact on the area of the charity’s objectives, including the responsibility to support the maintenance and deployment of the materials and resources created during the Heritage Lottery programme.

Trustees are also anxious to do more to raise awareness of the work of Robert Gibbings (see below) and will move ahead this once a suitable forum and approach to promoting his achievements can be found.

Trustees have also agreed the use of funds to support our trustee, Kate Kennedy, in the completion and celebration of her remarkable magnum opus Dweller in Shadows: A Life of Ivor Gurney, which was to take place towards the end of 2021.

In April 2020, early in lockdown, we pioneered a Zoom event (they have since become more commonplace!) to commemorate Rupert Brooke’s death. This was run jointly with Lauderdale House Arts Centre, Highgate. 40 people linked to the evening which Nick Peacey, the GMM secretary, had designed to include obscure aspects of the Rupert Brooke story, as well as offering local interest in stories of Highgate School alumni who fought at Gallipoli and a deeply felt tribute by Ghislaine Peart to the artist Robert Gibbings whose woodcarvings inspired her textile work ‘They have become our sons as well’. GMM2015 commissioned the work for Blandford Forum Parish Church where it is now displayed.

They have become our sons as well

We were also most grateful to Peter Hart, the distinguished military historian (oral historian to the Imperial War Museum for many years) who, at no cost to the charity, gave a sparkling talk entitled Rupert Brooke and the

Glitterati on Rupert Brooke and his contemporaries at Gallipoli. Peter Hart offered a view of Brooke as far from the naïve enthusiast for war often represented in poetry anthologies. A video of the event was placed on our website. The programme appears below.
