Daughter of an Anglican clergyman, Janet was received into the Catholic Church in the Sacred Heart chapel, Farm Street aged 21, and joined the Society three years later.The commemoration began in July 2013 with a conference focused on her spiritual journey and a visit to her childhood home in Cottesmore, Rutland. This summer there were two conferences: an academic one, organised and hosted by Digby-Stuart College, University of London, and another conference - The Seeking Spirit - focusing on aspects of Mother Stuart's life and legacy.
