Saturday 03 June 2023
Booking for this event has now closed. 

We are delighted to invite you to the 2023 OTA President’s Dinner which will be held in the Densham Suite at Taunton School on Saturday 3rd June 2023.

The speaker for the evening will be the broadcaster and journalist Jennie Bond, after the Reverend Richard Coles announced he is unable to join us. As the BBC's Royal Correspondent during 14 of the most turbulent years the monarchy has endured, Jennie covered events that made headlines around the world.

Since then, Jennie has appeared regularly on a wide range of television and radio programmes from light entertainment to documentaries –including ITV's I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here, Cash in the Attic and Great British Menu.
