| Support Preston Bridge Club |
Now that we have returned to face to face bridge it is obvious that it will be some time before there is a return to anything close to the pre-pandemic levels of face to face bridge. In fact it seems likely that there will be a very significant fall in numbers on a permanent basis.
If the club is to survive we need the support of members, there are two ways you can help.
The first is to return to face to face bridge although I appreciate that not everyone is ready for that.
The second is that if you are playing other online bridge please participate in the Lancashire online Pairs sessions see both our website and the Lancashire website. These provide several sessions a week for all abilities and table money after expenses goes to the club.
No other online bridge benefits the club, we do need your help.

The club is introducing an online feedback/suggestion system to enable members to make suggestions on how the club could be improved. All suggestions will go to the club secretary and they will normally be considered at the next Club Committee meeting, after which, one of the committee will get back to you. Club Committee meetings only take place every few months so please be patient! If you want to use this service then please click here.
