WELCOME TO PLUS

Plus was formed in 1941 following the publication of a report entitled "Disinherited Youth" which spotlighted the lack of recreational facilities for young adults in the 18 to 29 age group.

Clubs were set up with the aim of getting young people together to organise a wide range of activities within a friendly, social atmosphere.

The Plus Group is set up with the ideal that as an organisation it will benefit young people by giving them the opportunity to choose and run their own entertainment.

Simply it's a group of young people within their own age range, who meet in the venue of their choice, and elect a Committee to plan, organise, and run their own activities and entertainment.

Plus understands that for many people, taking the initial step of joining a group of people you have never met before can seem a little daunting. That is why each Plus Group organises regular Club Nights, to welcome and introduce new members to the Club in relaxed surroundings. Plus is a friendly organisation! Do come to our regular Club Nights as often as possible after you join, and you will soon find yourself easily making new friends.
