I was delighted – it’s beautiful.

I would love to obtain a good print of it.

I understand they’ve been sold out for years. Does anyone have any they’d be willing to sell? I’d particularly like the gardening and dressmaking designs. Thank you!

So glad I did not miss the day, it was very special to me and I will never forget. The tiles are beautiful and will still be there when I am long gone!

I have had a wonderful summer thanks to Charlie discovering so much about my ancestors.

Paul Bommer’s commemorative plaque is a visual delight.

I wish I could have been there! My Colonial ancestors were Spitalfields Huguenots and I am proud of that legacy of faith and hard work they passed on to their descendents.
Bless all of you and thank you, again.

I am a fellow of the Huguenot Society, having joined a couple of months ago.

I do hope I can attend any further Huguenot events as my family are of Huguenot descent and I am very proud of this.

Kind regards

Joyce

And now it has flats on the top, even better. In 300 years time maybe there’ll be another plaque near Paul Bommer’s celebrating The Syrians of Spitalfields and telling their story of immigration, integration and contribution.

for maintaining wonderful traditions.

The Huguenot Plaque is amazing: colorful, enlightening, and whimsical.
