The Christmas guest speaker is always a major attraction, with politicians, Olympians, celebrities and phenomenal retail giants, who also raise money for their nominated charity.
​
Members are permitted to invite one guest to each dinner, and often these guests go on to apply to join the club.
​
We also have an optional summer drinks reception where an increased number of guests can join and will raise money for our charity The Retail Trust.
Our events are hosted at the private members club, Home House, in Central London, members travel from the all over UK to get together to enjoy these exclusive events on the selected dates.
