Sheep Drive, Craft Fair and Lunch - Sold Out
2025-09-28 10:00 - 15:30 (Europe/London) | London Bridge and The Little Ship Club
This long-established City fundraiser celebrates a Freeman’s ancient right to bring flocks of sheep over the Thames and into the City’s market at Smithfield. This year’s sheep drive takes place on Southwark Bridge, which will close for the day, and as well as the opportunity to drive a small flock of sheep over the bridge (for which you get an official certificate), there is also a craft fair and lunch at a nearby restaurant.
Places are hard to come by (It’s a “bucket list’ thing.), but Clare’s managed to secure ten, for the 10.37am slot, so book in and join the Master in experiencing this unique event. (Nobody will believe you when you tell them what you’ve done!)
You can also bring friends and family (anyone over five years old), who get a slightly different certificate, and fancy dress is optional – needless to say, there are usually lots of young Bo Peeps skipping around!
Dress is anything from entirely casual, right up to full morning dress, with badges and gowns.

FSG Pub Takeover - October 2025
2025-10-27 18:00 - 23:00 | The Hand and Shears, 1 Middle Street, Barbican, London, EC1A 7JA
Following on from our two successful events last year, the Financial Services Group of Liveries (FSG) will be holding another Pub takeover on Monday 27 October at 1800 until late at The Hand and Shears pub, 1 Middle Street, EC1A 7JH.
There is no charge and no booking, just turn up, buy your drinks and interact with colleagues and friends from the 16 different Livery companies that make up the Financial Services Group.
It would be great to have about 10+ from every FSG company to make the evening a roaring success, so please share with other members, and encourage especially young members to come along.

This event is being organised by the Information Technologists and any queries should be directed to Rob Wirszycz at rob@wirszycz.com
