MHSG Women in WW2: A School Archive Exhibition

Wednesday 2 July 2025
To coincide with the 80th Anniversary of VE Day on May 8th, our archivists prepared an exhibition commemorating the contribution made by MHSG alumnae and their female relatives during WW2. In the Archive, we are fortunate to have information in School Magazines, as well as some first-hand accounts of the work done by some of our alumnae. We are also grateful to those who have recently sent us information about their female relatives who served in many different ways. This is the moment for all their stories to be told and their contribution acknowledged, so we would like to give the Manchester High community the opportunity to explore these fascinating stories in person. On Wednesday 2 July, the exhibition will be open for visitors. Coffee will be served from 10am. At 10.15, the archivists will give a short introductory talk, then you will be able to browse the exhibition at your leisure.

Founders' Lecture with Nazir Afzal OBE

Tuesday 25 February 2025
We are delighted that this year’s Founders’ Lecture will be delivered by Nazir Afzal OBE. It will be a unique opportunity to hear from a respected figure who has made significant contributions to society and social justice. Mr Afzal has followed a career in public service with a portfolio of high-profile roles. He is the Chancellor of the University of Manchester, and was notably Chief Crown Prosecutor for North West England. During his career, he prosecuted the most high-profile cases in the country and advised on many others, leading and campaigning on several legal topics including violence against women and girls, child sexual abuse and honour-based violence. His prosecutions of the so-called Rochdale grooming gang and hundreds of others were groundbreaking and changed the landscape of child protection. This promises to be an engaging evening, full of insight into the relationship between leadership and culture, and the impact these have on our society. 6.30pm for 7pm start
