Cripplegate Ward Club is a social organisation for those who take an active interest in understanding and appreciating the traditions, history and workings of the Ward and the City. It provides an excellent way to meet and to socialise with a wide range of people connected to and involved in the City and is a great way into the Civic and social activities of the area providing the chance for those connected with the Ward, in whatever way, to meet each other and the Alderman and Common Councilmen that represent the Ward. The Club also support appeals and charitable activities.
Cripplegate is among the busiest of the 20+ Ward Clubs in the City of London, with a varied programme of events throughout the year. There are both daytime and evening activities ranging from informal visits and tours of general interest, to the most formal of Civic Lunches and City Banquets. We visit some interesting places revealing facets of the City not normally seen and of course being a social club, these very often include luncheon or dinner somewhere nice too. All great fun. Membership of the Club offers an opportunity to discover and appreciate the traditions and fellowship of City Life. If you live in the Cripplegate Ward district or have business here we invite you to Join our Club and activities - just click on the 'Join us' link to get the ball rolling. There is no stipulation that members reside within the Ward (or even within London), only that they have a direct, or indirect interest in the Civic, Social or Business affairs of the City and of course guests of members are most welcome at all functions.

In December 2021, the clock face was revealed to show the work that has taken place, including the restoration of the original colour scheme. While the name Big Ben nowadays refers to the entire clock tower, 'Big Ben' is actually the name of the largest bell inside the tower, used to chime the hours and has been keeping time in the UK capital since 1859.
