The Sixth International Conference to be held at St John’s Gate, Clerkenwell, London, on Thursday 5th September – Sunday 8th September 2013The Conference will follow a similar pattern to previous conferences with four plenary speakers. There will be parallel sessions for communications, which may be on any aspect of the Military Orders, but must not last longer than 20 minutes.
