Conway Hall broadens the reach of ethics through talks, debates, concerts, and educational events, which we host from our 1929 Grade II listed building in central London and online.
Ethics is our Foundation
Conway Hall has been a hub for ethical thought and dialogue since it opened in 1929 as the home of what is now the Conway Hall Ethical Society.
Named after Moncure Daniel Conway, the abolitionist, freethinker, and former leader of the Ethical Society, Conway Hall was built to foster ethical discussion through lectures, debates, concerts, and social gatherings.
Today, we continue that tradition with a vibrant programme of events that put ethics at the forefront, while also housing the UK’s largest and most comprehensive ethical research resource in our Library and Archives.
Conway Hall is a registered charity and receives no government funding. Everything we do, from our events programme to the upkeep of our historic home, is made possible by the generosity of our members and supporters.

Our Vision
We believe in a fairer, more compassionate society with ethics at its heart, to help navigate the complexity of being human.
Our Mission
As an independent home for ideas and culture, we support diverse communities to engage with ethics through learning, conversation, and creativity, exploring the defining questions that shape our daily lives.
