The Society is for all those who love London. It was founded in 1912 by a group of eminent Londoners concerned about the lack of planning in the capital.
We arrange events and visits to a variety of places, buildings and institutions, some not generally open to the public, organise debates and lectures, including the annual Sir Banister Fletcher Lecture, addressed by distinguished speakers.
Our corporate sponsors are at the heart of what we do, supporting meaningful conversations about London’s future. Their generosity enables us to deliver impactful events, publications, and initiatives that celebrate and shape our city.
