About the Friendly Club

SOUTH MARSTON FRIENDLY CLUB

WHO ARE WE?

The South Marston Friendly Club was established to serve people aged 50 and over who live in the local communities.

OUR AIMS

Provide sociable events which will interest members of this age group. This is achieved by arranging speakers to give talks and demonstrations, entertainers who deliver song and verse to achieve a diverse selection of activities. These activities are selected to stimulate interactive discussion with the speakers and members.

Members are made aware of information related to their age group obtained from statutory bodies and other similar organisations.

ORGANISATION

The Club is run by an elected committee of club members. The committee, of eight members, is chosen each year at the Annual General Meeting held on the second Tuesday in the month of June by the members. Serving committee members can be re-elected. There is no limit on length of service of committee members.

The current committee is as follows:

• Officers of the committee.

Josie Manners – Chair	Sheila Jinks – Treasurer	Brian McGlone-Secretary

• General committee members.

Betty Thickins, Mary Case, Jenny Barr, Maureen Morris and Jean Whitfield.

• Our Honorary President.

Ivy Ward

We have a club member to represent us on other Village Organisations:

• Parish Council representative – Jean Franklin
• South Marston Recreation Association representative – Ray Harley

These representatives are tasked with supplying information about our organisation and to advise us of any matters raised by these organisations which could affect us. They report to the committee.
