SUMMARY:Annual Banquet 2024
DESCRIPTION:This year’s Banquet will be held at Mansion House on Tuesday\, 23rd July. The occasion is always the highpoint of our Livery’s year\, and this occasion will be no exception. \nAs many Members will know\, until the mid-18th century\, Lord Mayors used their own houses or livery halls for their work as head of the City’s governmental\, judicial and civic functions. The idea of creating a permanent residence came after the Great Fire of 1666 to provide a house for Lord Mayors who did not have their own livery hall. The first stone was laid in 1739\, and the first Lord Mayor to take up residence was Sir Crispin Gascoigne. The House was completed in 1758. \nImposingly Palladian in style\, it is faced by a grand temple portico at the front approached by flights of steps each side. The entertaining rooms were built on the first and second floors. The first floor had a roofless courtyard (later covered to form the Salon\, the entertainment space) and the great Egyptian Hall. The second floor has a ballroom and private apartments of the Lord Mayor and family. \nAfter we have dined\, Members and their guests will hear from The Chairman of the Bank of England\, David Roberts. David’s career began at Barclays\, where he worked for over 20 years\, rising to sit on the main board. He has also been Vice-Chair of NHS England\, Chairman of Nationwide\, and Deputy Chairman of Lloyds Banking Group. Currently however\, his role as Chairman of our nation’s central bank keeps him extremely busy and he will no doubt be keen to explain what the Bank of England is currently doing and why – rather brave\, really\, to a room full of chartered accountants! \n\nTickets: £169\nTime: 6.45pm – Drinks\, 7.15pm – Call for Dinner\, 10.30pm – Carriages\nDress: White Tie\, Black Tie or Livery Uniform with Badges and Decorations \nPlease book below where possible\nIf unable to book online\, please contact Clare Ferrar on clareferrar@accountantslivery.org\nor 07828 554967
