Who are we?

The Edinburgh Philatelic Society was formed in 1927 and we celebrated our 75th anniversary in 2002. We have met in several different venues over the years, but we currently meet in: St John's Church Hall, West End, Edinburgh, at the corner of Princes' Street and Lothian Road. Entry to the hall is from Lothian Road.

We meet on alternate tuesdays;
the Hall is open from 7.00pm and the meeting begins at 7.30pm. If you are a member of another philatelic society and you are visiting Edinburgh during our season, why not call in and visit us?
