Message from our Chairman

Welcome to The Anglo Chilean Society!

We hold a variety of events throughout the year where members and their guests can enjoy an aspect of Chilean culture - usually followed by a few glasses of Chilean wine.

Some of these events are an opportunity for members to meet each other such as at our annual Chilean BBQ.

Others are events to promote Chilean artistic talent in the UK.

Most of our activities raise funds to help those most in need in Chile. We work closely with the Embassy of Chile where many of our events take place.

Please get in touch with us if you would like to know more.

Patrons of the Society

Chairman: Fiona Clouder
President: The Ambassador of Chile, Ximena Fuentes
Vice-Presidents: The Baroness Hooper CMG, Professor Andres Velasco, Dame Marcela Contreras and The Earl of Dundonald
