The club AGM was held on 24 Aug 2025 and the committee confirmed for the year ahead. All committee members undertake specific roles and we thought you'd like to know what they are. All are volunteer roles apart from the club administrator.

Every club night, there is always a DCM, a committee member rostered to be on duty. Some committee people also help with door, cafe, sound and bar duties from time to time. 

A few notes - If you're a performer and would like to play at the club, or know of someone you think would be suitable please apply here or get in touch with John Dodd. If you have an idea for a special club night event, a theme or celebration perhaps, apply here or contact Bernadette Moroney. If you have particular skills and would like to offer to volunteer in any area, please let Kate know and she'll add you to the list! See below for contact details.
