Availability Details
At the moment all clubs are fortnightly and are from 7pm until 9pm. It would be helpful if you can help with setting up and/or tidying away at each end of the evening. So it would more likely be 6.45pm until 9.15pm but we are happy to be flexible.
We now have a Young Person Club fortnightly on Tuesday evenings from 6pm until 8pm.
