The Aldeburgh Society was formed in 1974 as the civic society for Aldeburgh. Our aims are to care for and nurture the character of the town and its surroundings on the East Coast of Suffolk.
Through informed, energetic engagement (meetings, responses to planning issues, publications and events), we encourage the preservation, development and improvement of public amenities and features of historic interest.
We aim to encourage high standards of architecture and town planning in what we believe to be one of England's loveliest seaside towns.
We provide members with a link to and support in exchanging with like-minded bodies in Suffolk.
Our social calendar includes a winter Lecture Series, hosting talks from experts on topics of collective interest, designed as a stimulus for the Society's collective direction.
The Society is run entirely by volunteers. Its President is Tony Bone and its Chairman Katherine Mackie.
