What's on in Three Households

Buckinghamshire, England

Three Households sits quietly in Buckinghamshire with a charm that doesn't need shouting about. There are plenty of community halls and village greens where local groups gather without needing a map to find them. It is a place where neighbours know each other's names before they even ask for directions. Even if the venue list looks bare, the town itself hosts the real events. You might catch a quiz night at a local pub or see a play in a repertory theatre nearby. Near Here keeps track of what is on so you don't have to drive halfway across the county just to find something to do.

An evening with Robert Hardman

Bestselling biographer and royal commentator Robert Hardman has had unique access to the world of Elizabeth II – including family, staff, advisors and even the last state visitor of her record-breaking reign, President Donald Trump himself – to produce this intimate, authoritative, richly entertaining new portrait of the late Queen in her centenary year. As daughter, wife, mother and Sovereign, Elizabeth II lived fascinating parallel lives, both in private and in public. But she remained something of a mystery – beloved, even revered, modest yet daunting, naturally shy but globally recognizable, inscrutable and also authentic. She was grand but so familiar that we felt we knew her. Yet we would always be left asking the same question: ‘What’s she really like?’ No one has written more authoritatively on Elizabeth II than Robert Hardman. Who better to answer that question? The only biographer to have interviewed all the senior members of the Royal Family, some of them several times, Hardman has crafted a gripping story of drama, devotion, triumph, tragedy, humour and conflict; of an outwardly stoical, inwardly complex woman whose love of family, love of country and duty to the Crown might pull her in different directions but never derailed her; a global stateswoman who wielded her great authority with charm and understatement.

Explore the Rose Family

Workshop 1: ‘Plant Families, and Vegetative Features of Rosaceae’ In partnership with Wild Amersham, this series of workshops for adults offers an introduction to the concept of a ‘Plant Family’, by exploring the Rose family, Rosaceae. This is not a family exclusively of roses – it is also home to a diverse array of other plants. These include many of our domestic fruits (Cherries, Strawberries, Apples, Raspberries), as well as garden plants (Potentilla, Spiraea, Alchemilla) and wildflowers (Wood Avens, Agrimony and Tormentil). Under the guidance of local botanist Karen van Oostrum, you will discover why such diverse species are included within the same family. Karen will take you through the key features of plants in Rosaceae, giving you the opportunity to look carefully at the structures of leaves, flowers and fruits from a range of species. In Workshop 1, we will begin with an introduction to the concept of a plant family. Karen will explain what a plant family is, how it relates to classification and taxonomy, and why it is useful. Participants will then explore the vegetative features (leaves and stems) of species within Rosaceae. Along the way, Karen will introduce a few botanical terms to help describe these features.

An evening with Jane Harper & Elly Griffiths

Get ready for a thrilling evening with best-selling authors Jane Harper and Elly Griffiths, as they chat about their brand new novels. LAST ONE OUT by Jane Harper He had been here, that was clear from the marks in the dust. And he had been alone. In a dying town, Ro Crowley waits for her son on the evening of his twenty-first birthday. Sam never comes home. His footprints in the dust of three abandoned houses offer the only clue to his final movements. One set in. One set out. Five long years later, Ro returns to Carralon Ridge for the annual memorial of Sam’s disappearance. The skeletal community is now an echo of itself, having fractured under the pressure of the coal mine operating on its outskirts. But Ro still wants answers. Only a few people remain. If the truth is to be found in that town, does it lie among them? THE KILLING TIME by Elly Griffiths Join Ali Dawson and her cold case team for another thrilling case. Ali Dawson is a police detective who leads a unit that investigates cases so cold her team must travel to the distant past to solve them. But Ali and the team haven’t been allowed to time-travel ever since their technical expert, Jones, got stuck in Victorian London, never to be seen again. To distract herself from meaningless tasks, Ali decides to look into a present-day case – an apparent suicide of a young man who fell to his death from a high building.
