The Society, which has been active for over 50 years, achieves its goals through events of an Argentine cultural nature, mainly in London, thereby giving people in the United Kingdom a better understanding of what Argentina and its people are really like. It also serves as a social liaison point for the many British people who at one time had links with Argentina.
The Anglo-Argentine Society has around 900 members, and includes many companies whose interests extend to Argentina amongst its Corporate Members.
Aims of the Society
* To advance the education of the people of Great Britain about Argentina, and of Argentina about Great Britain, about their respective people, history, language, institutions and culture, and their intellectual, artistic and economic life.
* With those ends in view, to organise tours, workshops, lectures, film shows, art exhibitions and similar functions, and to give advice and assistance in all matters relating to such education, including where appropriate, the making of educational grants to students.
* To further other purposes that are charitable under the law of England and Wales for the benefit of people in Argentina, by the provision of financial and other assistance to charities in Argentina or elsewhere.
