Great Scout: who was Lady Baden-Powell?

Who’s who of Hampton Court Palace? 5 talks, 5 characters, 500 years of history.


Lady Baden-Powell was actively involved in the scouting movement and during the First World War she began recruiting and organising Girl Guides in Sussex. She was known at Hampton Court for her entertaining and, with the aid of her ‘Home Office’ staff, Baden-Powell hosted regular lunches. Join this talk as we explore the determination of this intriguing character despite a backdrop of war and personal turmoil.
