A service for von Mallinckrodt, one of the co-founders of Schroders UK, will take place on Tuesday 5 October at noon. Von Mallinckrodt died in January, at the age of 90, following a long illness.
The Marchioness of Dufferin – Lindy Hamilton-Temple-Blackwood – died in October after a life devoted to conservation and artist. She was also a businesswoman.
Painting under the name Lindy Guinness, the Marchioness hosted more than 20 exhibitions across Paris, Dublin, London and New York.
A service of Thanksgiving to commemorate her life and work will be held at noon on Friday 22 October. Tickets to apply to attend all services are available on www.eventbrite.com.
