Who We Are
The Bullingdon Club is a private all-male dining club for Oxford University students. It is known for its wealthy members, grand banquets, and bad behaviour, including vandalism of restaurants and students' rooms. The club selects its members not only on the grounds of wealth and willingness to participate but also by means of education.
The Bullingdon was originally a sporting club, dedicated to cricket and horse racing, although work meetings gradually became its principal activity. Membership is expensive, with tailor-made uniforms, regular gourmet hospitality, and a tradition of on-the-spot payment for damage. Some members have gone on to become leading figures within Britain's political establishment. These include former Prime Minister David Cameron, former Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne, and former Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
The Bullingdon is regularly featured in fiction and drama.
The Cambridge Apostles (also known as the Conversazione Society) was an intellectual society at the University of Cambridge founded in 1820 by George Tomlinson, a Cambridge student who became the first Bishop of Gibraltar.
The origin of the Apostles' nickname dates from the number, 12, of their founders. Membership consisted largely of undergraduates, but there have been graduate students and members who already have held university and college posts. The society traditionally drew most of its members from Christ's, St John's, Jesus, Trinity and King's Colleges.
Today, at Bullingdon & Apostles, we are a small group of elite members who graduated from Oxford and/or Cambridge, offering our extraordinary help to our fellows.
