Children in Need – Tuesday 10 November

Come along, enjoy an evening of bridge and support a very worthwhile cause!

Our regular Tuesday evening bridge session on 10 November will be held in support of Children in Need.

The table fee for the evening will be £5 per person, with all money raised going directly to the charity.

Please be seated at your table by 7.00 pm, ready for a prompt start at 7.15 pm.

We would love to see as many members as possible taking part. Whether you're a regular Tuesday evening player or haven't joined us for a while, this is a great opportunity to enjoy some friendly bridge while helping to raise money for a good cause.

Please come along and support the evening – every player makes a difference!
