About the Society
In 1885 The Huguenot Society of London was formed by the directors of the The French Hospital* (founded in 1718) to promote the publication and interchange of knowledge about the Huguenots in Great Britain and Ireland, as, with the passage of time, a good deal of this history was unknown to many Huguenot descendants. The French Hospital directors also aimed to form a bond of fellowship among those who, whether or not of Huguenot descent, respect and admire the Huguenots and seek to perpetuate their memory.
In 1986 a new name was adopted - The Huguenot Society of Great Britain and Ireland - to reflect the Society's wider membership. The Society holds four meetings a year in central London, at each of which a paper on a Huguenot subject is read; these papers are later published in the Society's annual journal, the Proceedings. The meetings provide members with the opportunity to exchange ideas with people who have interests in common, and those members who wish their details to be added to the Lecture and Dinner mailing list on a regular basis, or who wish to attend a particular event, should contact the Hon Secretary at: secretary@huguenotsociety.org.uk. Please do this well in advance if you would like to make a booking for a dinner/tea.
Lectures are open to members of the public free of charge, but names must be registered in advance with the Hon Secretary as places may not always be available.
