The Club is part of a world wide organisation and members are welcome at other Clubs in the UK and around the world.
The Club meets on Wednedays at The Down Inn on the Bridgnorth Ludlow Road. The meetings are for Business & fellowship, they include committee activities , some after dinner speakers and other social activities. We take part in a range of competitive events with other clubs and also initiate our own. We hold a number of annual events to raise money for charity these are Classic Car Run, Fashion Show, Golf Day, Up The Steps Walk, Tree of Thought. Proceeds go to local, national and international good causes and charities
Increasing Club membership is the key to increasing our projects and charity support for local , national and international good causes. Dermott's team includes Vice Amanda Johnson and Second Vice President Vanessa Voysey.
