Join us at our annual Longford Lecture

The Longford Lecture is held annually and has been generously sponsored each year from its inception in 2002 by Independent Print Ltd, publishers of The Independent and The Independent on Sunday titles. Since 2010, it has also enjoyed the generous support of Thames River Capital Ltd and the McGrath Charitable Trust.

There are three main aims for the Longford Lectures

• to provide a national platform for a serious contribution to questions of social and penal reform
• to make significant recommendations to policy makers
• to be written, delivered and promoted in such a way as to engage wide public interest.

The Longford Trust makes no charge for tickets to the Longford Lectures so as to ensure that they are open to all, regardless of means. Those who can afford to make a donation in lieu of tickets are invited to do so.
