About BLS

Under the patronage of the husband of the British Ambassador to Kuwait, the BLS offers a variety of activities to its members, such as: twice-weekly coffee mornings, Mums and Tots sessions, walking and mah-jong groups along with an active book club. We also organise excursions to places of historical and cultural interest.

We hold special seasonal events too such as the annual Winter Bazaar in November, followed by our Christmas dinner as well as many other gatherings and events. Recent functions have been a Spring Gala Dinner, Mother’s Day Lunch and some afternoon tea parties.
