Beloved cook, broadcaster, and former RSA Chair Prue Leith joins us at RSA House to talk honestly and joyfully about getting older

In her new book, Being Old, Prue offers a candid look at the highs, lows and unexpected freedoms of ageing. From changing priorities to rediscovered passions, from loss to laughter, she explores how life can open up in surprising ways as the years advance. 

Expect a conversation full of warmth, humour and refreshing honesty as Prue shares the lessons she’s learned, the things she wishes she’d known sooner, and why she believes ageing should be celebrated, not feared. 

Followed by audience questions and a chance to have your book signed by Prue. 

Speaker:

  • Prue Leith, cook, author and TV personality

Chair:

  • Felicity Cloake, food and travel writer
