We are very interested in meeting people who, like us, are willing and eager to promote the main objectives of the Society. People who can help us to promote the different aspects of the Basque culture in London and the UK, be it language, music, arts, cinema, customs, sports, etc. Please contact us if you want to suggest an activity or want to help us organise events. People from the Basque Country coming to London and wanting to help are very welcome and we would ask you to contact us to talk about it. Please bear in mind at all times, this Society is open to anyone and anyone can suggest an activity or help with the events.
We would especially like to get in touch with all sorts of artists - bands, singers, musicians - from the Basque Country wanting to come to London to perform or thinking of coming to stay here, although we would be glad to work with bands and artists from anywhere else. Likewise, any other form of art, cultural or recreational activity you practice and want to contribute with, or want to suggest, will be initially welcome.
Looking back in time, there is no doubt we at the Society should be proud of our achievements. We thank ourselves and we thank you, for the continuous work and dedication we all have shown towards the four main objectives the Society supports. The range of activities this Society covers has been widening with the years. What began in London with occasional meetings of Basques and friends from all over the world, to gather around a table for a "quality" lunch/dinner or a quick "mus txapelketa", has developed into something much more comprehensive and complex. Please check our archives and our newsletters for all the information regarding our activities in the past. Although we all at the Society have traditionally worked to organise our events on a voluntary basis, we are currently looking into the possibility of finding the means and the funds to employ someone to run the office more effectively, as well as finding a place to set up our own, and much desired, Euskal Etxea - Basque Centre, which in turn, might create more jobs and more regular activities and events. This way, the Society might contribute even further to the London community.
