Details:

This month our guest speaker is Peter Leonard. He will be talking about “Blood Bikes”

On his last visit to WHS Peter talked about his work with Rossendale Mountain Rescue. This time, he will talk about his involvement with the Association of Blood BIkes. These are motorcycles which have been specially modified for use as courier vehicles for the urgent and emergency transportation of blood, human tissue, surgical tools and other fluids of the body such as spinal fluid. Peter hopes to bring one of the specialist motorcycles with him on the day.

Please note - Please check the venue for this meeting before you attend using the website link below or by contacting the Secretary. Some meetings will be held in the Hallfold URC schoolroom as it has a far greater capacity than the museum.

Whitworth Historical Society have a programme of monthly lectures, which are usually held on the first Wednesday in every month, between the months of October and June, at 7.30pm.
