Andrew Copson (Chief Executive, @HumanistsUK ) tells us about how his two great grandmothers (who saw him off to #oxforduniversity) were "unchurched" and what #humanism actually is. His mum Julia raised him in the #humanist tradition, worked as a dinner lady in his school and sent him off for a private education under the Government's Assisted Places Scheme. Andrew talks touchingly about the untimely #death of his younger brother and memories of the two of them from #childhood . Fun fact: Andrew has met #kingcharles and knows the #tigerclub song.
