We warmly invite you to join a wine reception to launch the Nigel F. Palmer Travel Fund, to be held at 18:00, Monday 11 May in the Hinrich Reemtsma Auditorium of the Warburg Institute. The Fund will support graduate students whose research in medieval languages and literature necessitates travel.

The Mortimer History Society will once again offer two Research Bursaries for the academic year 2026 to 2027 of £1,000 each. The MHS Bursary programme is designed to support new research into any aspect of the medieval (1066 to 1536) Welsh March, the Marcher lordships or the Mortimer family.
