Mr Gifford

[Richard Womersley]

My form tutor was Mr (Terry) Gifford. He was an English teacher and I remember him inviting poet Mike Rosen to the school to read some poetry - I think I have got a picture somewhere, I'll try and dig it out. I've since met Mike Rosen a couple of times and asked if he remembered coming to Yewlands. He doesn't particularly, but he does remember Mr Gifford who, last time I heard, was still teaching English but not at Yewlands.
