Clerks’ Association

Last Updated on 11/02/2026

The Clerks’ Association, founded in 1937, began as an informal group of Clerks from Livery Companies with halls, most of whom were City solicitors. It now includes Clerks from all Companies below the Great Twelve that own or hold long leases on their halls.

Officially recognised by the City of London Corporation, the Association provides a forum for Clerks to exchange views, share best practice, and raise matters of common interest with the Livery Committee. It currently has 24 members, with the Chairman, usually the most senior Clerk not previously in the role, and the Hon. Secretary elected annually at the October AGM for a 12‑month term.[/vc_column_text]
