We’re a non-profit community group based in Shrewsbury House, a historic manor house that’s graced Shooters Hill for over a century.
Thanks to our community affiliation, we enjoy access to our spaces at community rates, allowing us to minimize costs and eliminate the need for membership fees.
Any profit goes into providing material for our games, member rewards, digital subscriptions such as DnD Beyond and towards our socials. We also have paid storage at the House for our growing collection of games.

Identity
We welcome participants aged 11 and up. For those under 15, a chat with your guardians is required, and often, their presence is necessary—but why not invite them to join in?
Our community is particuarly rich in parent/child teams, and adults make up 80% of us. We are from across a spectrum of ages, from teens to those in their 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond. We celebrate diversity, with over 60 regular members from various backgrounds.
Don’t worry about fitting in due to age or inexperience; inclusivity is key, and we’re great at quickly integrating newcomers into the game.
We also believe in your privacy, and at no times do we publish photos of any of our members.
RPG
The majority of our members are playing role-playing games, mostly that is D&D 5e where there is always a space to play. But we also run many other systems, such as Call of Cthulhu, WFRP, Star Wars, Free League RPGS, and more. We host multiple D&D 5e campaigns and welcome newcomers for both short-term and long-term adventures.
Our main campaigns can last up to 18 months, allowing deep character development, but we also offer flexible short games for a quick dive in. We have many experienced GM’s with a lifetime of experience, but we also welcome new GM’s. So if you have a story to tell, let us know! We’d very much like to hear from you!
Plus, for our players we provide access to a fully loaded D&D Beyond account for an enhanced digital experience. Free for you to use. Ready to jump in? Connect with us on Discord!
War Games
Dive into our wargaming community, where strategy meets creativity on the battlefield. We offer a welcoming environment for both experienced players and newcomers to explore popular games like Blood Bowl, Kill Team, Magic: The Gathering, Warhammer 40k, Zombicide and more.
We own many of these games, and so in many cases you can just come along and play!
Our Discord channel is the hub for organising these games, it is important to check in with what’s in play. We welcome new players and experienced players alike.
Whether you’re interested in interstellar conquest, ancient battles, or surviving a zombie apocalypse, you’ll find your place and a supportive community with us.
Reward
We celebrate our community’s milestones with unique rewards to acknowledge your participation.
Once you complete 50 sessions, you’re honoured with a “Dice on the Hill” T-shirt, customisable in your preferred colour, symbolising your commitment.
Achieving 100 sessions earns you a special dice box, engraved with your initials and our logo, to cherish your gaming journey.
For each 50 sessions after that you will receive a series of copper, silver and gold pin badges.
Beyond rewards, we host regular socials at Shrewsbury House, marking Summer and Christmas, sometimes even with money put behind the bar, and our much-loved Christmas raffle is a particular highlight.
