As in any club, there is a set of rules that our members agree to abide by when they join. Members of our club are expected to behave in a courteous manner at all times, be friendly and inclusive and avoid acting in a disrespectful or offensive way to any of our members or their guests.
The founding principles of our club are “charity and good learning”, and we try to remain faithful to both by making regular charitable donations and fostering culture, mutual understanding, critical thinking and a love of the arts.
A document with the official “Rules of the Whitefriars Club” will be sent to any prospective members wishing to join the club. Members can read it here by logging in to the Members’ Area.
