Find a partner.

We have introduced a partner finding service to replace the previous host system. If you want a partner for a Monday afternoon face-to-face or a Thursday evening online, please email Tony Bennett  (bnnttanthn@yahoo.co.uk) by noon on Monday for face-to-face or by 3.00 pm on Thursday for online.The earlier you let Tony know, the more likely it is that a partner will be found for you .You will be notified by Tony either by noon on Monday or by 3.00pm on Thursday with your partner's details. In the case of online on a Thursday, please ensure that you enter on the website by 4.00 pm.Tony will also assist you if you are looking for a partner for more than a single session - or even for the long term.

We are also trialling the find a partner service in Bridgewebs.  You should see a Find a partner tab on the left hand menu. It is fairly easy to use but there is a Find a partner guide which appears below the Find a partner tab when you click on it.

CHARITY DONATIONS

I am pleased and proud to report that the club raised 650.00 for Children In Need in November. In May, we raised 660.00 for the local charity, the Rainbow Centre, and later we contributed 185.00 to a Cancer Research event, making a grand total of 1,495.00 in 2023.

Because of the club's strong financial position, which is helped considerably by our very healthy membership numbers and our weekly table numbers, all the costs of running the charity sessions are met from the club's funds. This means that every penny of the 5.00 table money that we charge for the charity sessions goes to the charity, along with the very many generous individual donations from our members.

David Ellerby FDBC Chairman
