Warm drinks will be served afterwards in the Great Hall and the Savile Room at 4pm, where we can all warm up again, and share our memories of him.<\/p>\n<p>In the Savile Room there will also be an exhibition of the work of the Anonymous Singers, the opera ensemble that he performed with.<\/p>\n<p>We are expecting an ambient temperature of 6-11 degrees in the chapel, and there are a number of steps to get into the chapel. Consequently we are making a live stream available for those who feel they may not be able to attend in person. Please mention this in your email when you reply.<\/p>\n<p>We have a very small amount of disabled access parking available, but basically a taxi would be a good idea as Oxford has recently introduced a zero emissions zone policy. We recommend Radio Taxis on 01865 778866.<\/p>\n<p>We are very much looking forward to seeing people and hope to make everyone feel welcome.
