THE FIREBIRDS MCA
Past Mistresses and Consorts 2015/16
of City Livery Companies
Welcome to the official home of The Firebirds, where you will find information of our past and future events and activities. Membership is open to Mistresses and Consorts of City Livery Companies during the tenure of Lord Mountevans as Lord Mayor of the City of London.
Our aim is to continue the fellowship experienced during our term and to support the City of London and its Lord Mayor.
