Lord Young – Dartington
May 15th, 2008
As part of South Devon’s Humanists’ series of discussions, George Black will give a talk on Lord Young of Dartington at 7.30pm on Thursday May 22 in Birdwood House in Totnes.
“Michael Young, the late Lord Young of Dartington, was an entrepreneur most famous for founding the Open University and the Consumers’ Association and their magazine Which,” George told the PRSD.
“He played a leading role in the 1945 Labour Government which set up the National Health Service, and was also for many years a trustee of Dartington Hall and an active member of the Humanist movement.”
