We are pleased to offer section members a guided tour of the historic Royal Hospital Chelsea,  led by a resident Chelsea Pensioner. You will marvel at Sir Christopher Wren’s stunning buildings, hear the captivating stories of our inhabitants – both past and present – and learn about what life is like for today’s veterans at the Royal Hospital.

Following this we will then head next door to the National Army Museum where we will be greeted, told about the museum, and then able to wonder the galleries and collections until closing at 17.30pm.

There will also be the option of a light two-course lunch with wine at the club beforehand.

Members may book up to one guest and can choose between booking for lunch and the visit at £60 or the visit alone at £15.

Dress code is lounge suit.

*Transportation from the clubhouse to the Royal Hospital Chelsea, to be confirmed at an additional cost.
