Established in 1906, Phyllis Court is a private members club situated in a grand riverside manor, set in 18 acres of land with hotel rooms on the River Thames in Henley.
Views from the Club span the River Thames with the Chilterns countryside beyond. The interior is equally as charming as the location with an abundance of natural daylight and classic architecture adding to the grandeur of the magnificent building. Phyllis Court has excellent facilities, superb cuisines and wines, relaxing riverside accommodation and friendly staff.
Becoming a Member at Phyllis Court opens the door to a wide array of social activities, entry to Regatta at Phyllis Court, access to Interest Groups, access to our restaurants and exclusive Members Bar, along with special rates for overnight stays in the hotel.

EMS 2024 Lounge

This annual conference is an exciting opportunity for doctoral students, alumni, faculty, staff, and managers involved in engaged management research and evidence-based management to network, share ideas, and attend inspiring keynotes and interactive sessions.
To further support this we are launching a new concept for this year’s conference – The EMS Lounge, for networking, meetings, conversations or merely reading or catching up on daily news - during the days and after conference hours.
There will also be an open bar where you can buy snacks and soft drinks, or maybe a glass of chilled white. The EMS Lounge is yours!
More information will be coming soon.
