This week, we’re joined by the true guardian of Reed’s history — Old Reedonian Andy Wotton, whose connection to the school has only grown since he left in 1975. A local day boy turned NatWest training lead, Andy returned to Reed’s with a passionate mission: to uncover, preserve, and honour the stories that have shaped our community.

At the heart of this episode is remembrance, and specifically Andy’s meticulous research into the Old Reedonians who served and fell in war. Thoughtful, uplifting, and deeply compelling, this conversation reminds us that history isn’t something behind us; it’s something we choose to carry forward.
