I was a young teenager from an inner city school, I had lacked confidence and thought myself unworthy of arts and culture. The generous and charitable work of Gregory Wilsdon via the Classics Academy gave access to young children from Dunraven School, in South London, to the poetry and beauty of Latin. I gained access to amazing teach once a week at Westminster School. It was a true privilege that I will remember for the rest of my life. In the two years that I knew him and Mr Hazel, they were a shining example of the best kind of teachers, the ideal educators: generous, rigorous, exacting and passionate about their subject. Years later, it is deeply sad to learn that he has passed so young. For what is it worth, I truly believe that his passion in providing access to Classics has made me a better and more thoughtful person: learning to think rigorously about language, finding a passion for literature across cultural contexts and history. Condolences to his family, may he rest in peace.
