England) Dickens Fellowship (London

Founded in London in 1902, the Dickens Fellowship is not an individual author but an organization dedicated to celebrating the life and writing of Charles Dickens. It grew into an international community with branches in the UK and abroad, encouraging both devoted scholars and general readers to explore Dickens's novels, journalism, and public readings.

The fellowship is known for its magazine, events, and branch activities, all aimed at sharing Dickens in a welcoming way rather than treating him as distant or difficult. Its work has helped sustain public interest in Dickens for well over a century, making it an important part of the culture that surrounds one of England's best-known writers.
