How to learn bridge

Playing bridge is a great opportunity to learn a new skill and have a lifetime of social fun! See this Facebook video

We've just had great drop-in bridge taster session at Churchdown Community Centre where beginners were able to see the fun of bridge.

Our next course of Beginner lessons, in conjunction with Gloucester Bridge Club, will run at Churchdown Community Centre on Saturdays 17/10, 24/10, 31/10 and 7/11, from 10am-4pm.

Please contact Alan Stanfield to register interest in our taster session and/or the beginner lessons.

There is also  a free minibridge course to give you an introduction to bridge. The link is www.nofearbridge.co.uk/minibridge

Club News

The club programme for 2026 is on the Calendar page.

The AGM is on the 26th October, we are seeking nominations for the Committee. Bren is stepping down from the Treasurer role and also from the committee.

We are proposing at the AGM to increase the maximum size of the committee to 8 people

There are already some nominations (Alan for Chair, Marisa for Secretary, Carol Wheeler, Carol Neale and Louise Keeling for Committee roles).

So we'd welcome further nominations to help run the club (and particularly to fill the Treasurer role).

Any nominations to Alan, Marisa or the sheet on the club noticeboard please.
