Club Update
29th January 2022
Membership Renewals 2022
If you renewed your membership in 2020 and have a new style membership card with your photo on, we have simplified how you can renew for 2022
Dear Members,
As you know, it's membership renewal time during February for the club, when most of our members call in to pay their annual membership. This year we have simplified how you can renew and donate more if you wish.
In 2021, the committee decided that all individuals whose memberships were paid in 2020 and who received a new card with their photo on, will run over through to 2021. This year's subscription for 2022 will be; Full Members - £10.00, Country Members - £5.00. The club would still be happy to receive any donations in addition to this minimum membership renewal amount.
In response to this communication many of you chose to donate in 2021 and the response was most welcome. The committee and officers would like to thank all members who chose to do this.
To renew your 2022 Membership you have two options.
Option One - Call in to the Club
Bring your Photo Membership card, fill in a short form, hand over the bar with your membership fee.
If you would like to pay more than the minimum renewal fee, as many of you chose to do during 2021 please fill in that amount.
Option Two - By bank transfer.
This is the easiest, most cost effective and safest way to renew your membership. But you must have a new membership card to do this with your photo on the front. (Issued in 2020)
Bank details for the Club are as follow:
Stanley Ward Conservative Club Limited
HSBC
Bank Sort code: 40-12-13
Account Number 42186497
Please use reference Mem, then your membership number (last 4 digits only) in the reference field as "Memxxxx"
If you wish to Renew for other family members, unfortunately it will have to be a separate transfer due to the character limitations in the bank transfer form reference field. Other members have set up standing orders and are making monthly donations, again the process and reference numbers are the same, should you wish to do this. However we must receive your Minimum renewal fee for 2022 Full Members - £10.00, Country Members - £5.00, by the end of February 2022 for your membership to be continuous.
We would also be grateful if you could pass this message on to other club members who may not be Facebook users, or use emails or the internet. (Or who may not have been in the club recently)
The Officers and Committee are grateful for your ongoing support and say a huge “Thank You”, to all those members that have already donated to The Club during 2021.
The Officers and Committee,
Stanley Ward Conservative Club

Stanley Ward Conservative Re-Opening July 2021
Dear Members,
The Officers, Committee and All the Staff are delighted to announce the re-opening of the club.
It’s Table Service, and Restricted Numbers for the first couple of weekends, as we outlined on the 5th April 2021 in our emails to you, Facebook Posts and Website. However, after that and with the lifting of the Government Restrictions it will be back to normal, we all hope, and maybe back to some dancing on the dance floor too.
We had a great first night, last night, in the club, with lots of the “Friday Night” crowd in. It was great to catch up with many of you and we are all looking forward to another great night tonight with our live Band, Bingo, Raffle and of course Ian on the Mike!
Opening Times
Monday to Thursday Closed
Friday from 6:30 pm
Saturday from 6:30 pm
Sunday from 4:30 pm
Opening Times will continue to be limited but driven by demand, these times are under constant review & will be extended in the coming weeks and for events. (Like football and any functions)
Preparations
There has been a tremendous amount of work completed in the run up to opening to ensure The Club is compliant and ready to open. This has been completed by Julie and supported, by the Officers and committee, with our Staff playing key roles in getting the Bar ready. Thank You to everyone who has been involved.

Bar Pricing
With support from our main brewery, we will be holding our 2019 Pricing for a while. As highlighted in our posts and email in April there have effectively been three pricing increases by breweries since our current members pricing was set. The good news for a short while, we will maintain 2019 pricing, we hope you enjoy it while it lasts. Prices are substantially lower than our local venues. The pricing will be revised, our aim, as ever, is to continue to negotiate the best possible deal for our Club with Breweries and ensure our members pricing, where possible, is the lowest in the area, whilst building back our “War Chest” for the future of The Club.
Our Two Biggest Selling Products and price comparison are as follows;
Coors Carling
The Club £2.75 The Club £2.70 Members Price
Highfield £3.60 Highfield £3.25
Shovels £3.65 Shovels £3.45
Velvet £3.49 Velvet £3.49

I wanted also to confirm our intentions for opening for The Football Final, tomorrow.
We have Two Large Screen, one in the concert room and one in the Games Room. In addition to this, we have TV’s in other areas including the Member’s Lounge and TV room. All available screens will be showing the match.
The Club will Open at 4:30 as planned,
Last Orders 30mins after final whistle, Or 11:30 at the latest.
The snooker room be set up for the match from 6pm, with covers in place and the surplus chairs being stored in the darts area will be used to create seating amongst the tables in front of the Games Room Big screen. This will allow the restricted capacity in the games room to be increased to 37
Due to the Government Restriction
-
Total COVID Capacity for the building is 150, with maximums for each area.
-
Table Service will be in place, with increased staff numbers compared to summer 2020.
-
Please continue to follow the existing guidance, including the use face masks while walking around the club.
There is no need to book, we will keep you informed once we have reached capacity. Needless to say, “turn up early to avoid any potential disappointment”.
We all hope that our continued Great Pricing and Approach to the Final will ensure an enjoyable night for all members and staff.
On behalf of the Officers, Committee and Staff,
Thank you for your continued support at The Club
Jason
