Welcome to the Christchurch Branch of the Dickens Fellowship.

The Fellowship meets at 2pm on the first Saturday of every month from March to November in the staff room of Hagley Community College. All public are very welcome. You do not need to have read Dickens or be an afficionado to enjoy the meetings. We have members from all walks of life and all ages. If you wish to know more, contact our secretary, Mrs Esme Richards.

Every year, the Fellowship studies one of Dickens' major works, and several minor ones. One member of the Fellowship presents a programme each month, in which a section of the novel studied is covered, by sketches and readings. We also have video afternoons, mid-year and Christmas parties, and other forms of entertainment.
