Our vibrant programmes of courses, events and online resources are aimed at all ages, social and educational backgrounds, and abilities. Based in the quiet surroundings of Red Lion Square, a minute’s walk from from the busy crowds of High Holborn, we have welcoming spaces in which to learn, study and research, including our atmospheric library. We aim to inspire curiosity in people about the world in which they live, giving them the tools to make the world and their community a better place.
