The Canterbury Branch was re-founded in 1996 by Dr Frank Fricker with a programme of monthly talks, of a mainly academic nature, and occasional outings. That, with the annual Birthday Lunch, remains the basic pattern. However, before each talk there is a convivial half-hour for refreshments, news and chat, not always strictly Dickensian. The Branch AGM is held at its December meeting, when business is leavened by a Christmas entertainment accompanied by Dickens Tart and Punch. The Canterbury Branch has twice staged the Fellowship's Annual Conference, in 2005 and 2012.

A short introduction to Canterbury

 

 Please note the conference this year will be at the slightly later date of 5-8 August 2024, at Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight. Further details here.
