Founded in 1882 by Liberal Prime Minister William Gladstone, the purpose of the National Liberal Club was to be a bastion for Liberal politics in the UK and around the world. In 1976 the NLC became the first major London private club to admit women and, today, is proud to continue to strive for an ethnically and socially diverse membership.
Liberalism remains at the heart of our Club values. Our Political Membership gives you the right to vote on matters that inform the future direction of the Club and ensure the Liberal ethos continues in perpetuity. You don’t need to be a member of any political party to become a political member, all we ask is that you declare you are Liberal in your politics.
Becoming an NLC Member includes you in the ranks of famous Political Members such as H. G. Wells, Dylan Thomas, Bram Stoker, Violet Bonham Carter, William Gladstone, Andrew Carnegie and many more. We proudly continue the Liberal tradition within our Political Membership, and advance the cause of Liberalism with events and activities throughout the year.
