2021 Membership Drive! Sadly with Covid-19 causing a halt to our hosting, meetings and other special events we have not had the face to face get togethers and fun we usually have. With this in mind we have made an offer to all existing members and any possible newcomers for free memberhip from now until the end of 2021 (usually $15 a year). Hopefully things can start getting back to normal in the not too distant future and we can all meet up again with familiar faces and new faces too. If interested please contact current President Craig at [email protected]. We would be happy to have you on board!

Yeoman Warder story time! YW Darren Hardy takes us back to 1671, when the dastardly Colonel Thomas Blood attempted to steal the Crown Jewels from the Martin ...Tower (spoiler alert: the Jewels are still safely with us at the Tower today!) Keeper of the Crown Jewels Talbot Edwards, who was fooled into allowing the robbery to take place and who was badly injured in the attack, lived to tell the tale and died on this day in 1674. Find out about visiting the Tower (including checking in on the Jewels!) and book tickets here: hrp.org.uk/tower-of-london

For those of us missing home...
