Member of the Month // Friday Night Club

Friday Night Club aims to improve the wellbeing of adults with learning disabilities and/or mental health issues through activities that help them feel valued, and be valued, within their community.

FNC has steadily grown; having established in 2008 as a voluntary group, they converted to a CIC in 2016. FNC now have over 100 people attending one or more of the activities offered.

FNC have activities running most days of the week throughout the year at different venues which are run by our volunteers and individual’s own support staff.

In addition to monthly Club Nights for socialising, FNC also organise

  • Arts, Crafts, and Music Sessions
  • visits to Knowle Haven which includes archery and off-roading
  • Lifestyles Catering Group
  • trips to Wey and Arun Canal

FNC have recently been granted several acres of land on which to build a small outdoor activity centre, to provide activities such as archery, a horticultural group and a track for off-road buggies. Pending planning permission, FNC are also looking to set up a marquee, which they would like to share with other groups and partners. Their challenge for this year is to fundraise to make their plans into reality.

You can find out more about Friday Night Club by visiting their website and Facebook page

  • Pamber parish council were really pleased with the support provided by Action Hampshire’s Rural Housing Enabler helping us through the development process. It was a good experience.

    Chris Goss, Pamber Parish Council
  • Action Hampshire has always been a useful font of information for us at Winchester Churches Nightshelter. Sue has always been really helpful, and I do find the updates from the ‘wider’ world to be of interest.

    Michèle Price, Winchester Churches Nightshelter
  • Having Action Hampshire as a point of reference, support and guidance is invaluable for small to medium sized charities like ourselves. Without them, we would be far less connected and less able to serve our beneficiaries in a meaningful and coordinated way.

    Juno Hollyhock, The Rose Road Association
  • I have found Action Hampshire to be truly innovative and forward thinking in their approach to their work and their passion for the voluntary and community sector is easily measured through their work to help improve the lives of all sections of the community.

    Grant Cornwell, Hampshire & Isle of Wight Community Foundation
  • Action Hampshire are the most fantastic organisation and it has been a pleasure to collaborate with them. They are very positive and easy to work with, from Rachel’s warmth on the front desk all the way up to Sue’s vast knowledge and experience on the top floor.

    George Scott-Welsh, IncuHive
