By its own definition, it is a club for "graduate and professional women of varied backgrounds and interests." The members include lawyers, scientists, writers and musicians, as well as businesswomen.The club house is located in Audley Square, Mayfair, London, England.The club was founded in 1883 by Gertrude Jackson of Girton College, Cambridge. In January 1887, the (then) University Club for Ladies opened its premises at 31 Bond Street. By 1894, the location was not large enough to serve the purposes of the growing club and it expanded by moving to new premises at Maddox Street. By 1904, the Club had moved to 4 George Street, Hanover Square where a number of bedrooms were available and by 1913, membership had grown to 800 members. The club now has almost 1,200 members.
