Mediumship and the Movement of Spiritualism Before and After Hydesville and The Fox Sisters

Saturday, October 17, 2026 1:00 PM- 2:30 PM

Why did Spiritualism need the events at Hydesville, and how are these events viewed by the rest of the world? Join us as Leonard Tatt presents a discussion of historical events that happened before and after the phenomenon at Hydesville. Learn how the championing of these events impacted the movement.

Leonard first became involved in spiritualism in 1991 and developed his mediumship under the guidance of Leonard Young at the Arthur Findlay College, Stansted Hall.

His development seemed to be quite rapid as he started serving churches in 1993 and has served churches all over the world, in places as far afield as the USA and Canada, Germany, Switzerland, Ireland, and the Shetland Islands.

Leonard went on to become a tutor at the Arthur Findlay College before his spiritual journey took him in a different direction.

Leonard has a keen interest in Philosophy, and holds a Master’s Degree in Theology from the University of London.

Leonard is never happier than when he is working on behalf of the Spirit World, bringing his love of spirit to everything he does, as he believes mediumship to be truly an inspirational, life-changing gift from God, the use of which must be seen as a sacred duty.
