London Welsh Centre was introduced in 1925. When it reappeared after the Second World War in October 1946 it was called "Y Ddinas". Some idea of the range of activities at the London Welsh Centre in the post war years can be gathered from the announcement in "Y Ddinas" for just one month, January 1948. The Centre was the venue for three dances, two nights of community singing, a concert, two whist drives and an "at home". The Centre’s magazine is now published quarterly alongside regular newsletters by email. Welsh language classes have been held more or less continuously at the London Welsh
