A service of remembrance and celebration for the life of Count Louis Zborowski

We were thrilled to be part of this very special occasion, which celebrated the life of Louis Zborowski, who died 100 years ago on the same date in 1924. Louis Zborowski was the man behind “Chitty Bang Bang” , a pioneering race driver and a financial saviour of Aston Martin in the 1920’s. The Aston Martin Heritage Trust produced some information panels to support the event which will remain on display in the church for the following months. If you want to hear more about the events of the day then head to our Podcasts, Episode 31, hosted by Garry Taylor and Steve Waddingham. A 100-year celebration of Count Louis Zborowski.
