Come and Join Us
Do you live, work or have an interest in the
Wards of Vintry and Dowgate in the City of London?
Would you like to meet interesting people from
a range of backgrounds, have a say in what goes
on in the Ward as well as visit some fascinating
and historic places? If so then this Club is
for you.
We provide the chance for those connected with
the Ward, in whatever way, to meet each other
and the Aldermen and Common Councilmen that
represent the Ward. Our events are social and
municipal and we welcome new members, especially
those who work in the area.
In case you don’t know, Vintry and Dowgate
are two of 25 Wards in the City of London. The
Vintry Ward Club was founded in 1877 and the
Dowgate Club in 1896. The current arrangement
is the resulyt of two clubs joining together
in 1957 as the resident population declined
and each club membership fell. As a consequence
the Club is represented by two Aldermen (the
City equivalent of a Councillor) elected by
Ward voters. Alison
Gowman is Alderman for Dowgate Ward and
Andrew Charles Parmley Alderman for Vintry Ward.
They are supported by four Common Councilmen.

If you would like to join please contact our
hon. secretary
to arrange attendance to one of our events or
a meeting with one of our members.
