There are genuine geological specimens and are not toys; they are not suitable for young children and should not be put in the mouth. Please wash your hands after handling geological specimens and before eating food. Click here for our Risk Assessment.

Indoor meetings usually start at 6-30 p.m. and are held in room TR1 on the ground floor of the Brynmor Jones Library at the University of Hull (unless otherwise stated). Non-members are welcome to attend.  Booking is required for some of our other meetings - full details of the event will be sent when you book.

There is no charge for non-members attending our meetings (unless otherwise stated), but you are welcome to make a donation to Society funds.

The Club Nights are open to members of the Society, University Staff and Students and interested members of the public. They are "do it yourself" meetings. Those attending are encouraged to bring some appropriate specimens, photographs, models or texts to contribute to the evening; though it is also OK to just join in the conversation. Members can also give a short talk or slide show.

Please contact the Society if you wish to come to a field meeting so that the leaders will know how many people to expect. The Society reserves the right to exclude people who are not wearing the necessary protective clothing/equipment.

If you wish to support the Society please consider sending a donation.
