Outreach In The Community/ North Fields , use the club on Thursdays day time giving adults with special needs a place to a fun and chat to each other and there are not many places in the local area for them to be in one big place and really enjoy and get out of there houses. Meet new people all of them who I've got to know them well and they are fantastic people and hope they carry on , being able to come, fingers crossed if funding carries on which is a big problem not just for special need adults but also special need kids .

The Late Roy Williams would of been proud of everybody who had been involved in the Celebrations.The founder members the late Mr. & Mrs Elliott and the volunteers from the early 60s' would be very proud to see how the club has been transformed over the many years.Over the last 5years or so we've worked very closely with MCC. and Northwards and the North M/c.Partnership.This has helped us to secure funding from many organisations.The day came to a close when we held celebrations in the evening at the Charlestown Pub ,when the local band Mimic Dave Heapy Drummer(Well Done!) Local Concillors stopped for the evening and thanks to the Brewery and the Charlestown they kindly provided the buffet for everybody.The pub was absolutely buzzing it was like a New Years Night.It was nice to see so many past and present friends all together enjoying a fabulous nite in our local Charlestown Pub.Thanks to Tiffany Lonergan for singing on the night and also at the Club in the daytime."A BIG THANKYOU!" to everybody for making the such a success.
