A crowdfunding campaign has been set up to help save The India Club in London’s The Strand from closure.
Established more than 50 years ago by Krishna Menon, India s first High Commissioner to the UK, with founding members, Lady Mountbatten and Prime Minister Nehru, The India club was a meeting place for leading figures associated with post-independent India.
The club is located in Hotel Strand Continental, and is home to a restaurant and lounge bar whose interior have remain unchanged since the club opened in the 1950s. Three generations of the same family have run the India Club for over 23 years, from the oldest generation working behind reception to the youngest waitressing.
