The National Liberal Club is offering London students and young professionals a rare opportunity to visit the Club and enjoy free drinks and canapés.

This unique event is being organised by current students and alumni of the University of London, and promoted by LDYS London.

If you wish to attend, or have any questions, please contact Ben Caldecott () as soon as possible. There are a limited number of places on the guestlist.

Please note the NLC's dress code - jackets and ties for men, and "smart town wear" for women.

The NLC provides a social environment for people from a variety of backgrounds. The Club House, with its grand dining room, beautiful river terrace and well stocked bar, provides all members and their guests with a home away from home when in Central London.

The Club has a range of other facilities available to members that include a reading and writing room, modern business centre with computer facilities, gym membership, access to a worldwide reciprocal club network, rentable function rooms and discounted bedrooms.

The Club's Younger Members are active and organise a number of events with other London Clubs (see the Inter-Club website); these have included a recent Oktoberfest, Masked Ball and Club Crawl.

It's been a busy few months - just see our news section! We've had two very successful embassy events and an excellent Christmas party, and in our spare time, have campaigned to save the planet...

At a local branch and university level, there have been even more events - pizza nights, campaigns on Darfur, curries, speaker meetings, and of course the Freshers' Fairs.

We've got plenty of ideas for 2007 - more embassies, more campaigns, more debates, and more fun. If you have specific suggestions, feel free to get in touch with our social secretary, Chamali Fernando - see here for contact details.
