Unexpected meeting

A chance meeting in Cornwall reunited Robert Scott-Jupp C75 and Stuart Roberts M75, leading to a fascinating talk at Robert’s local community centre in Salisbury.

Stuart Roberts

By a remarkable coincidence, Robert Scott-Jupp (C75) and Stuart Roberts (M75) met at a National Trust property in Cornwall last year. It turns out that we both live in Salisbury, and our respective partners are friends from when our children were small. Stuart is a renowned expert in wild bees, Robert runs a series of talks at his local community centre in Lower Bemerton, Salisbury. So Robert invited Stuart to give a talk, which happened on 21 Oct 2026, and was fascinating.

We didn't know each other well when at Canford, but the connection was there!
