The British Wireless Dinner Club was founded in 1922. It was felt that the informal association of wartime comrades (both serving and civilian), together with a list of members and their addresses, was bound to be of value in any national emergency.

Those friendships have been renewed and new ones made, through an annual meeting and dinner every year since the Club’s formation in 1922, apart from in 1941, when the Battle of Britain was distracting the members, and in 1944, when the preparations for D-Day were similarly distracting!

The Club been privileged to have had many distinguished guest speakers, including royalty (Vice Admiral Lord Louis Mountbatten (1943), HRH The Duke of Edinburgh (1972), and HRH The Princess Royal (2012)), as well as leading figures from the military, intelligence, academic and commercial areas of our ‘charter’.

We are now pleased to have a Club bow-tie that reflects the true ethos of the Club – Thank you, Keltic Ties!
