West Africa Study Circle

Activities

Meetings

The study circle meets twice a year in London, usually at the Royal Philatelic Society's premises in Devonshire Place. These events are normally in early March and November. An informal meeting is also held in Salisbury during July each year.

Additionally, a weekend conference is held every second year. The venue varies: previous meetings have been held at York, Leamington, Chester, Buxton, Warwick, Edinburgh and very successfully in 2009 near Stratford-on-Avon. These have been most successful with many members bringing their partners to enjoy the social side of the weekend.

Auctions

A society postal auction is held twice a year allowing members the opportunity to buy and sell specialised material at low commission rates.

The Spring auction is timed to allow viewing at the society's London meeting for those able to attend. The biennial conference includes a live auction.
