**Online** Ten - and More - Famous Belgians
Talks & Demos | Nationwide event hosted by Flower of Kent Branch (SL)
Friday 24 October 2025 at 2.00pm
Melanie Gibson-Barton's Zoom talk will show that the people of the tiny country of Belgium, not given their independence until 1830, are famous for more than their chocolate, chips and beer. The wide-ranging talk will give the stories of men and women born through the centuries to modern times in the area covered by present-day Belgium; a country just 14% the size of the United Kingdom. Melanie sets out to prove that there are many reasons to be grateful to this tiny country, where she had a second home for many years.
