Sid Beauchant
This picture is 'Sid and Ksenija always together' and fittingly shows Sid's bike that so many recognise him from, as he cycled around Reading and beyond.
Thank you for your kind donations in memory of Sid, which go to support the work of the Royal Meteorological Society.

Huguenot Society of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
Learn more about us
The Huguenots were members of the French Protestant Church, many of whom, in the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, left their homes in France to escape persecution. More than 50,000 of these refugees came to the British Isles and, in 1718, a French Hospital * was founded in London. In 1885, the directors of the Hospital created a Society to promote the publication and interchange of knowledge about Huguenot history.
The original ‘Huguenot Society of London’ has since been renamed 'The Huguenot Society of Great Britain and Ireland', and an Irish Section with its own website has been established. Both sections of the Society aim to form a bond of fellowship among those who respect and admire the Huguenots and seek to perpetuate their memory.
