Concrete badger said:hmm, I've never really thought about it - that area is a bit of a cultural dead zone as far as anime is conncerned! A little harsh maybe, but you're unlikely to find anything outside of university societies, as far as I know anyway. If such a club were to be set up, I'd be happy to help with it though.

The nearest unis to try would probably be the likes of Leeds or Newcastle (the largest) or possibly Durham or York. The websites usually end in .ac.uk (I'll look for some linkage later tonight).
