A Message from The Chairman
This, is only the second of our

little of what we do here.

Paul Jacobs was tutored by Gordon Higginson who was not just President of his local church but also
President of the Spiritualists' National Union, Principle of the Arthur Findlay College and one of the finest
all round mediums of the 20th century. Gordon became a personal friend and mentor teaching Paul to not
only recognise but also to unfold his latent mediumistic gifts. Paul's first public demonstration came in
1990 after 7 years of intensive development under the guidance of Gordon and Martin Young.
Paul has an enviable reputation as an international teaching medium. His work has taken him to Finland,
Sweden, Switzerland, Italy, Holland, Germany and the USA. Paul's main interest today is the training of
tomorrows mediums. To this end he has set up his own school for mediums, this is based in Amsterdam,
Holland, but he is here, at The Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Centre for a weekend course.
This course will be practical and informative and will help you to put enthusiasm and confidence back into
