WELCOME TO FRIENDS OF ST HELENA
The Friends of St Helena is a charity founded in March 1988 and has two aims:
To provide information about St Helena, including its history, culture, environment and current affairs and to provide practical support to the St Helenian community.
- In recent years our AGMs have been held in October each year at the Victory Services Club, Marble Arch, London. At the meetings, we invite speakers on a range of subjects relevant to St Helena and we also show films.
- We publish The St Helena Connection, a news magazine twice a year and Wirebird relating to the island's history once a year.
- We also publish social-historical books under our Wirebird imprint which are available at a reduced price to members.
- We have supported local projects such as the development the Museum of St Helena in Jamestown, and we expect soon to engage in a major funding exercise for the proposed St Helena Cultural Centre, both in conjunction with the St Helena Heritage Society.
