‘Give members a vote on lifting ban on women joining the Garrick’, campaigners say

Pressure is mounting on one of London’s oldest private members clubs to end its 191-year ban on allowing women to join.

Campaigners have long called for the Garrick’s “outrageous” male-only policy to be scrapped, but have issued a fresh plea for patrons to be allowed a vote after fellow members-only club Pratt’s overturned its 166-year ban on women.
