CUBERT PARISH
SOCIAL CLUB
12th April 2024
Tony, Colin and the rest of the team on the Cubert Social Club Sub-Committee are calling for volunteers to help run the bar. There’s going to be a monthly rota and volunteers can choose to work one or more sessions per month. If you have no experience working behind the bar, don’t worry, training will be available. Small social clubs really do rely on volunteers and so if you can spare one or two evenings a month please contact Tony on cubertsocialclub@hotmail.com I know he will be very pleased to hear from you. If you would like to know more you can also chat to him and the team at one of the membership sign-up evenings at the village hall. Scroll down for details.

The Cubert Social Club is signing up members this month. The fee for the remainder of 2024 is £10. The membership fees will be reviewed each year thereafter. This doesn’t mean the fee will be increased but, of course, this cannot be guaranteed. In order to beat any future increases and to raise the necessary start-up funds, the Social Club is offering multiple year memberships up to 5 years. Seems like a very good deal!
To get things going, Tony Savage has arranged two sign-up sessions at the village hall. These are:
Monday April 22nd from 7pm to 8pm and
Monday April 29th from 7pm to 8pm

The application for a Club Licence has now been formally submitted by the Cubert Social Club (CSC) and very shortly you will see formal consultation notices being posted up at the village hall and on its noticeboard near the post office. This will give everyone an opportunity to have their say about the granting of the licence. Meanwhile, Tony, Colin and the rest of the team are working hard to source equipment, materials, skilled labour and help in order to be at the ready should their application be successful. On the granting of the licence the CSC will be inviting local people to join the club which, along with funding assistance from the village hall, should raise sufficient funds to see the project through to its completion. Exciting Times!
The Cubert Social Club Facebook Page now has 80 members. Do please join and share the page to your neighbours.

Tony and Colin met with a representative of Cornwall Council's Licencing Department on 22nd March and completed the application for the club premises certificate. They won't hear back from them for at least a month so in the meantime they have continued to work on planning for the alterations at the hall and they've held a first meeting with their colleagues on the Cubert Social Club Subcommittee. Their Facebook page is gaining a decent following too with 73 members as of today. Watch this space for further updates.

6th March 2024
Members of the Village Hall Committee and the Social Club Committee met together at the Village Hall on Wednesday 6th March to talk about the proposed kitchen and committee room alterations needed in order to create a social club at the hall. It was a positive meeting and it was agreed for the social club to take the next step and make an application for a club premises certificate. After the application is submitted, Cornwall Council's Licencing Department will require us to put up notices at the hall inviting comments. The Parish Council and other statutory bodies will be consulted and all of this will take a minimum of 28 days, so probably longer. Watch this space for further updates
2nd March 2024
At the February '24 meeting of the Village Hall Committee (VH Committee) the Social Club proposal was discussed in detail. The committee voted in favour of pursuing the project. A meeting between the VH Committee and the newly formed Social Club Sub-Committee is taking place at the hall on Wednesday 6th March. This will give everyone the opportunity to understand the alterations that need to take place to accommodate the club and to consider making an application for a club premises licence. The creation of a social club will be a big change for the hall and the VH Committee have to ensure its development is in line with Charity Commission rules and compliant with other relevant regulations.
21st February 2024
The meeting below took place as arranged and approximately 45 parishioners attended, including representatives from the Parish Council and the Village Hall Committee. A show of hands in support was requested and all, but those from the two formal bodies, voted in favour of the plans to start a social club at the village hall. The two formal bodies didn't cast a vote because the Village Hall Committee has to consider the matter further before giving permission to carry out any works and the Parish Council, being a statutory consultee, will be consulted separately should a club premises licence be applied for.
A further meeting is taking place between the Social Club and the Village Hall Committee very soon and we will publish further developments on this page.
5th February 2024
There is a renewed effort to form a social club at the village hall. A sub-committee has been formed and a public meeting is taking place at the hall on Thursday 15th February at 7:30pm. See Latest News tab for further information. Progress will be reported here.
Previous efforts to create a social club took place during 2022. Please scroll down to learn about the progress made then.
