Glasgow University Women’s Club (London)

Aims of GUWC

The aim of the club is to provide a varied social programme of interest to women graduates and alumni of Glasgow University, resident in London and the South East.

The Club, which is non-denominational, spans a wide age range with many professions represented and meets six times a year.

STOP PRESS! Marjory Bremner a member of the Club will be carrying the Olympic torch in Brent on day 68 of the relay (Wednesday 25th July) sometime between 10.25am and 12.20pm before it moves on to Barnet.  Details of the final route will be given out about 4 weeks in advance so anyone who lives around that area please come out and support Marjory and if you manage to get a photograph do let us know.

If you can’t get there, the torch relay is being shown 24 hours a day on the Olympic website:-
