The Social hub for Civil Servants. The Civil Service Club exists to provide a social facility for all current, former and retired members of the United Kingdom’s Home Civil Service and His Majesty’s Diplomatic Service.
The Club, which is not subsidised is a non-profit run by the members for the members ensuring that the subscriptions and services are kept at affordable price for all grades of civil servants.
Situated in the heart of London, close to Whitehall, Trafalgar Square, and a short distance from London Charing Cross Station and Embankment Underground Station the Civil Service Club provides a perfect hub for socialising, or for meetings and functions in our Elizabethan, Trafalgar Milner-Barry, or Edward Bridges rooms.
Membership of the Club is open to all serving, former and retired Civil Servants of the United Kingdom, and to current, former and retired employees of Government Agencies and NDPBs (Non-Departmental Public bodies).
Membership is also open to current, former and retired members of companies carrying out ex-Civil Service work.
Membership is also open to widows, widowers or bereaved partners of those who were eligible for membership. Sponsored Associate membership is available for those not entitled to ordinary membership.

Meetings
In advance of the wedding of the Princess Elizabeth and Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten, RN, Duke of Edinburgh, which took place on 20 November 1947 at Westminster Abbey, the Home Civil Service and Foreign Service undertook a collection for the purpose of purchasing a suitable present to celebrate the royal nuptials. Two silver salvers were purchased, after which a balance remained.
The Princess Elizabeth was touched by the kindness of the gesture and made her wish known that the balance should be handed over with the express intention that it be used to establish a social facility for civil servants: ‘on condition that membership should be available to all grades and classes at a subscription within reach of all.’
