Defence Medal

The 1939-45 Defence Medal was a campaign medal of the British Commonwealth, awarded for service in WW2. It was instituted to recognise both military and some types of civilian service – including the Home Guard. To qualify members of the Home Guard had to complete 1080 days (approximately three years) service.

From the Committee to All Members – Please use the Club

The global financial crisis has hit us all in one way or another. Anyone that uses the Club on a regular basis will have noticed the number of members regularly using the Club has fallen.

The Committee have looked at expenditure, and have reduced (and continue to reduce) our outgoings. But we can only do so much.

Various works still go on voluntarily behind the scenes today to keep the club running. The Committee is always interested to hear from members that may wish to become involved in the running and supporting of the club.

The Officers and Committee of the Club would like to ask the membership to pull together to ensure that the Club is making a profit – please can all members use the Club facilities as much as they can.

We need to safeguard the Clubs future for generations to come.
