Social club founded in 1943 to provide a social centre for the community. This limited company is today a lively, friendly and popular club for people from a wide area; it has numerous sections including bowling and theatre. Financially Brookdale is self-supporting, relying upon members’ subscriptions and money raised by club activities. There are three major halls at Brookdale which are rented to the club sections and to outside organisations and this together with the profits from our own licensed bar provide the sound financial basis for the upkeep and maintenance of its clubhouse.
