Christmas Luncheon 

Saturday 7th December  2024

Once again we are looking forward to our ever popular Christmas Luncheon at the Cavalry & Guards Club, which last year attracted our largest ever attendance. Again this year we have a maximum of 100 places, and early booking is essential. This function is always one where we can look forward to meeting up with old friends and usually some new ones in a particularly convivial atmosphere. Once again we have secured the superb Coffee Room overlooking Green Park and the Bomber Command Memorial.
