Welcome to SWEA London!
SWEA London is the UK-based chapter of SWEA, the Swedish Women's Association, Inc. SWEA London was established in 1989, and presently has around 200 members.
SWEA is an international charitable association for Swedish speaking women residing outside Sweden, or having returned to Sweden after having lived abroad. SWEA brings members together around the shared Swedish language, the Swedish heritage and the Swedish culture, thereby establishing both a social meeting point and an international network. The membership facilitates life abroad and provides support at the time of resettlement in Sweden.
SWEA was founded by Agneta Nilsson in 1979. Princess Christina, Mrs. Magnuson, is SWEA's Honorary Chairman. Presently, SWEA has some 8,000 members, organized in 80 chapters in 35 countries. Like other chapters around the world, SWEA London's objective is to promote the Swedish language, Swedish culture and Swedish traditions, to facilitate personal and professional contacts and to establish a network for Swedish women in the country of operation and internationally.
SWEA London offers a varied program in the London area.. SWEA London welcomes new members - the only requirement is some knowledge of the Swedish language. For more information please contact Mrs Sofie Haag on london@swea.org
