The Society owns and runs the Leatherhead Museum of Local History, puts on talks by invited speakers and members, publishes books and a highly regarded quarterly newsletter, provides this website and assists researchers and those interested in local history in many ways, in particular by making available online its Newsletters and Proceedings since 1946.

People involved in teaching history locally in schools and colleges (teachers, teaching assistants, lecturers etc) are invited to join the society for free. Please contact our Chairman to take up this offer.
