Douglas Union of Parishes with Frankfield invites everyone to this year’s George Boole Lecture, taking place on Wednesday, 25th November 2026, at 7pm in St Michael’s Church, Blackrock.

This year’s lecture, entitled Future Worlds Under Climate Change, will be delivered by Professor Emeritus Robert Devoy, who will explore climate change and the role of computer modelling in understanding what the future might hold.

Taking inspiration from George Boole, the pioneering mathematician whose work helped lay the foundations of modern computing, the lecture will consider how computer modelling can help us examine and understand the effects of a changing climate.

The event is open to everyone, and refreshments will be provided afterwards, offering an opportunity to continue the conversation.

All are warmly welcome to attend!
