Come visit one of the hidden gems of London and see the visually stunning interior of the house famed for its 16th century Damascus tiles and mosaics. The former home and studio of the leading Victorian artist Frederic, Lord Leighton, Leighton House is close to Holland Park, a beautiful London park famed for its parakeets, around 1 mile from both the Science and Natural History Museums and about 0.2 miles from the Design Museum.
There is plenty to do both before and after your guided tour. We plan to meet up in advance for cake and beverages at one of the local patisseries and depending on the weather, a walk in the lovely Holland Park following the tour.

Hold the Date : Livery Shooting Day, Bisley Ranges
Whether you are a serious ‘shooter’, or complete newcomer wanting a new experience, this is a ‘must do’ event. Surplus funds are being shared between the RAF Benevolent Fund and an alternative education course organised by the RAF Small Arms Association for Air Training Corps cadets who have issues with life skills. Supporting young cadets with these life skill issues is a worthy cause.
Further details to follow.
The Company’s Civic and Charities’ Luncheon is an annual event focusing on the charities that we support on a regular basis. This year we are privileged to have the Right Honourable The Lord Mayor of London, Alderman Professor Michael Mainelli, as our guest of honour. We shall also be hosting other civic guests and making charitable donations from the Tax Advisers’ Charitable Trust.

All Liverymen are invited to attend this extremely popular and traditional Livery event, and to exercise their right as a Liveryman to vote. The Election of the two Sheriffs and other officers, including Ale Connors and Bridge Trustees, in Common Hall occurs each Midsummer Day. It is a considerable spectacle, and is an interesting and historic ceremony that serves a vital purpose in the governance of the Civic City.
After Common Hall, the Master and other Members of the Company (not limited to Liverymen), will take lunch at Founders’ Hall with their guests – and everyone is welcome to attend.

There is opportunity to ask questions of the speakers and the Briefing is followed by a light finger buffet. For further information please use the following flyer link:
