Saskia Bosch joined the Society in 1994, when touring the UK with her music ensemble ‘La Muse’, which performed at the 75th Anniversary Dinner in the Langham Hilton. She currently works as a Voice Over and Voice Over Director for the History Channel and recently set up her own website. She can often be heard in radio interviews or on various tv channels in Holland. Saskia is also a member of the Anglo-Netherlands Events Committee. “The great thing about this Society is that you visit places you’ve never been before, and meet interesting people you never thought you’d meet”
