Our members care about Beeston, and their common aims are to champion what is good about this area, and protect it from mediocre development. By giving their active support, they can get to know what is going on in the town and influence the decision-makers in a positive way.

If you live or work in Beeston, or simply appreciate our shops and parks, we hope you will seriously consider giving us your support.

Our programme of talks, socials, and public meetings are a great way to meet new people and possibly discover something you never knew about our town. If you’re a student living in Beeston, you can now make the best of our discounted rate – and get the warm fuzzy feeling of helping your friendly, local Civic Society for less than a pint of craft ale.

Heritage Open Days are just one of the annual events we are involved in – great for anyone interested in local history, architecture, industrial heritage, local produce, and great food + drink!

We’re lucky to have many excellent places right on our doorstep for local experts to offer fascinating guided walks throughout the summer. If local wildlife, architecture, and history are your kind of thing – these could be right up your street! We also arrange visits and trips further afield.

Even if you don’t want to join us a member just yet – you can still support our work by making a donation.

As a Registered Charity, we rely entirely on donation and the contributions of our members.
