Welcome to the Sri Lankan Society, one of the most prestigious and successful societies at Imperial (if we do say so ourselves!).
We were founded many many years ago with the aim of introducing Imperial to our vibrant culture and a giving Sri Lankans in the University, overseas or British, a chance to meet one another. Our flagship event is Sapphire, an annual dinner dance, which attracted close to 1000 people every year, with artists such as The Gypsies, Bathiya and Santhush, and the Legendary Desmond De Silva. Providing the entertainment and raising over £5000 over the years for charities in Sri Lanka.
The society has grown tremendously during the last decade and we’re looking for this year’s freshers to make it even bigger than before. So freshers, if you see a guy or a gal in a Sri Lanka cricket top asking you to join our society, please do join.
Find us at the Freshers’ Fair in the Great Hall in the Sherfield Building, where you’ll get to meet the whole committee and ask any questions you have. It’ll be easy, just follow the massive Sri Lankan flag, baila blasting out, and vast amounts of samosas and patties to shamelessly bribe you with.
We look forward to seeing you all and hope you’ll join!
