We depend on positioning, navigation and timing systems every day, and modern society is as critically dependent on these technologies as we are on electricity and clean water. In this talk Dr Faragher will explain some of the most fascinating aspects of this branch of science, from how GPS is one of our greatest achievements as a civilisation, to how submarines can navigate underwater for months using just gravity, and why some of the ways in which we have unintentionally smashed things into Mars are as impressive as they were expensive.

Dr Ramsey Faragher is the Director, and a Fellow, of the Royal Institute of Navigation, and also a Fellow of Queens’ College, at the University of Cambridge. He holds dozens of granted patents across more than 40 patent families and has worked on the navigation systems of a variety of systems across land, air, sea, and even Mars. Ramsey is the inventor of the Supercorrelation synthetic aperture processing technique for radio positioning systems and has been the recipient of numerous awards from IEEE, RIN, IOP and ION including the ION Samual Burka and Per Enge awards, the IOP Dennis Gabor Medal, and the Royal Institute of Navigation’s highest accolade, the Harold Spencer-Jones Gold Medal.

Cliff Collis has a wide background in science with a doctorate in fish neurophysiology and researching in and teaching physiology and biochemistry at UCL and Kings College London. He also worked as a communication specialist doing knowledge/issue management in Roche drug development and finally was the professional registers and training manager at the Royal Society of Biology. He has always been passionate about promoting interest and understanding in science and was very pleased to be able to continue to do this in Savile Science, where he has organised talks on such diverse topics as Mars rovers, the psychological benefits of music, microplastic pollution and cyber security. Several members have given talks as well, and members are invited to offer suitable talks or suggest speakers.

The King’s Men, made up of Choral Scholars and Lay Clerks from King’s College Cambridge, look forward to presenting a programme of madrigals, folk-songs, jazz numbers and maybe even a ‘pop hit’ or two – from ‘Byrd to the Beatles’ – hopefully there shall be something for everyone.

In her new book Manners & Mischief: An A–Z of a Life Lived Well, Lady Anne Glenconner offers a characteristically witty, warm and deeply personal guide to navigating life with grace, resilience and good humour. Drawing on nine decades marked by extraordinary privilege, profound loss, unforgettable friendships and a close view of the British Royal Family, Lady Anne reflects on the values that have shaped her – from loyalty, kindness and courage to the importance of laughter, curiosity and a touch of mischief.

In this special event, Lady Anne will discuss the inspiration behind the book and share stories that illuminate her remarkable journey: from her childhood at Holkham Hall and her role as maid of honour at the Coronation, to her decades as Lady-in-Waiting to Princess Margaret and her later career as a bestselling author. She will explore the lessons she believes matter most in today’s world, offering a thoughtful and entertaining perspective on living well at any age.

Lady Anne Glenconner was born into the Coke family of Holkham Hall and has spent her life closely connected to the Royal Family. She served as a maid of honour at the 1953 Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II and later spent more than 30 years as Lady-in-Waiting to Princess Margaret. With her husband, Lord Glenconner, she helped develop the island of Mustique, welcoming artists, royalty and world figures. In her eighties she became a bestselling author with Lady in Waiting, followed by several acclaimed books. Her latest, Manners & Mischief, draws on a remarkable life filled with resilience, humour and unforgettable experiences.

Jonathan Ziebart has been a Savile Club member for over a decade and is a close friend of Lady Anne Glenconner’s granddaughters. He is delighted to chair this event and welcome Lady Anne to discuss her new book, Manners & Mischief.
