The Esperanto Association of Britain (EAB) is a registered educational charity whose objective is to advance the education of the public in the international language Esperanto.
Among its activities it publishes, provides and distributes information about the language and organises educational courses, lectures and conferences. It also provides a comprehensive bookshop with material from around the world.
Regular publications include :
- Handbook
- La Brita Esperantisto - a literary magazine in Esperanto
- Esperanto Update (mainly in English with news of activities related to the language).
The offices relocated to the Wedgwood Memorial College, Barlaston, Stoke-on-Trent,Staffordshire where they remain today, and where one of the largest and most important collections of material in and about Esperanto is to be found in the Montagu Butler Library.
On 2002-05-04, the AGM was finally held after a two-year gap. Issues raised by delegates included an acknowledgment of the small membership, and a suggestion of not relying on "number of members" alone as an indicator of strength of the organisation. In each of the 2003 and 2004 AGMs, a minute's silence was held to mark the members who had died during the past year.
