NEW - A Friday afternoon session is starting on 21 March at 1.00 pm for a 1.15 start at Hartlip Village Hall, The Street, Hartlip, ME9 7TL. To start with, we will be running a Host system so you don't necessarily need to have a partner to take part.

We have recently been told of the sad passing of Eunice Tope a previous member of Medway Towns Bridge Club. Eunice died peacefully in October and hailed originally from Totnes in Devon. She worked as a Chemistry Teacher at Rochester Grammar School, was a regular player at our Club and partnered some of our current members, who will remember her fondly. Eunice also served as Club President during her membership here.
