Alumnae Speaker Series

Whole School Alumnae


On Wednesday 19th November 2025, 7.00pm, we are looking forward to welcoming another inspiring member of our alumnae community, Alice McIlroy (previously Coubrough, DAHS 2006), into BGS as part of our Alumnae Speaker Series. The talk is open to alumnae, parents and students. 

Alice recently released her debut novel, The Glass Woman, a psychological thriller and cautionary tale about a female scientist who trials a pioneering AI brain implant. It explores themes of autonomy, memory and identity. The novel has been well received and has been reviewed in The Guardian, New Scientist and Irish Times.  Alice will discuss her inspiration and themes for her novel, and her writing process. She will be happy to answer questions. 

Tickets are priced at £2 per person and will include light refreshments and an opportunity to buy Alice’s book. Please reserve your place here.
