British-Soviet Friendship Society

The British-Soviet Friendship Society was a British organisation active from 1946 to 1991.[1]

The society's papers are held at the Marx Memorial Library,[1] while the University of Hull's archives hold papers relating to the society's 1952 trip to the Soviet Union.[2]

The society was a successor to the Friends of the Soviet Union ( established in 1930), the Russia Today Society (1934), and the Anglo-Soviet Friendship Committee (1940).[1]

From 1956 to 1990 it published a monthly or bimonthly journal British-Soviet Friendship, retitled BSFS Journal in 1990.[3]
