Every month we host an outing to a place or event of interest in the capital. Outings are free, apart from public transport charges where these apply.

A picnic lunch and refreshments are provided. New faces are always welcome. Time and place of meeting are provided on booking.

Places are strictly limited and please note we can’t accept group bookings (i.e. no more than two people).

To book, contact us. After booking, if you find you are unable to attend please let us know as soon as possible so that we can reallocate your place.

A Hankering After Ghosts: Charles Dickens and the Supernatural

Tuesday 28 February 2012

Marking the bicentenary of Dickens’s birth, this exhibition at the British Library explores the many ways in which Dickens used supernatural phenomena in his works, while placing them in the context of scientific, technological and philosophical debates of his time. More details of the exhibition can be found here.
