The Butchers' Charitable Institution was founded in 1828 as the meat industry's trade charity, assisting people unable to work or retired, a function it continues today. Although it is entirely independent from the Butchers' Company, it uses Butchers' Hall for its committee and annual general meetings, and has for some periods maintained offices elsewhere for day-to-day business, including 61 West Smithfield from 1909-c.1995. In 1986 it merged with the London Meat Traders' and Drovers' Benevolent Association to become the Butchers' and Drovers' Charitable Institution.

This material was deposited by the Butchers' and Drovers' Charitable Institution in the Manuscripts Section of the Guildhall Library in 1995, 2005 and 2007. Catalogued by Guildhall Library staff in 1991, July 2005, March 2006 and July 2007. The Guildhall Library Manuscripts Section merged with the London Metropolitan Archives in 2009.
