Water is now flowing to the club, so the 13:30 and 19:15 sessions will go ahead.

The water is not drinkable so we will not be able to provide tea or coffee, but the WCs are operational. If you need water please bring you own.  The bar will be open to serve bottled drinks.

We are discussing how to restore the club to normal service at the moment so please be patient while we get organised.

We are sad to receive news that John Brown has passed away. John had been a member of the bridge club since 2016 and he will be sadly missed. His family has asked for a small private funeral service.

This year, all duplicates held at the club during the weeks commencing 23rd November, 7th December and 4th January will be treated by KCBA as qualifying events for the Kent Pairs Championship (Larsky Cup).   Any pair who register a score of 50% or more will be invited to play in one of the semi-finals in February, provided both players have primary allegiance to Kent.

The club will be implementing the new Parking Charge Notice system starting on 1st Jan 2026, you have probably already see the new signs.  Details about the scheme have been sent out to members, but if you have any questions please drop an email to parking@twellsbridge.club

Part of this initiative is to encourage members to make better use of the carpark, so attached is a new plan asking members to fill up the carpark in a more efficient and considerate manner.

The ventilation system in the CT Room has now been replaced with new fans placed on the roof. These are more powerful than the old fans that failed during COVID. In addition the air-con has been refurbished.  We hope members will feel more comfortable!
