Leicester Secular Society
For an inclusive and plural society free from religious privilege, prejudice and discrimination.
Founded in 1851, Leicester Secular Society is the oldest secular society in the UK, dedicated to promoting freedom of thought, reason, and expression. We meet every Sunday at 6:30 pm at the historic Leicester Secular Hall (established in 1881) for lectures on a wide range of subjects, including science, politics, history, economics, and social issues. The Society is entirely volunteer-run and operates as a non-profit organisation, supported by our members and the wider community. Everyone is welcome to join us in exploring ideas and engaging in open discussion.
