Socials
Social evenings are held on the third Wednesday of each month except in December, where the Xmas calendar will dictate the socials. We meet in the upstairs room of a pub called The Devereux at 20 Devereux Court, Temple, London WC2R 3JJ (map).
Socialising starts in the pub from 18:30pm and the main event kicks off at about 19:30pm in the upstairs room.
Sometimes we have a purely social evening or a quiz night, but socials are talks and slide or movie presentations by outside speakers or talented club members on climbing and mountaineering related topics.

Short Talk Series - Climbing in the Alps in winter: snatched successes and expensive failures
Wed 18 Jun 2025
We are starting the "short talk series" with the aim of bringing more stories to socials and providing a lower barrier for members to share their escapades. In June, Dai and Stephen will be sharing stories with a common theme...
Dai Richards will be talking about his experiences of attempting alpine routes in winter, mostly around the Mont Blanc Massif. He’ll be discussing logistics, gear, conditions, route selection and how to avoid spending a week in your airbnb in Chamonix looking out the window at a blizzard.
In the same vein, Stephen will talking about his attempt on the Matterhorn.
NB: new updated timings: Drinks from 1830 with talk at 1930.
