If you or your friends are interested in Japanese popular culture, you can find information on Hyper Japan here. Note that there is a lot going on at Hyper Japan and there is a charge for admission. Once in the festival there is no charge for the shogi workshop. Details on the shogi and other free workshops can be found at this page.
Information on the London Shogi Club, shogi events in or near London, and occasional other stuff. Shogi is Japanese chess, and the key way it differs from regular chess is that when you take your opponent pieces, you keep them, and can 'drop' them back on the board later. It's pretty popular in Japan so you often see it in anime and Japanese art, but it's not very well known in the UK.
