The charityowns the Former Railway Club on Bolton Rd which is a
purchased property to conduct large events.
The other existing property (71 Preston New Road) allows partial, smaller
activities to be held.
The charity continued to receive memberdonation income.
The members and theirwider families ofthe community also benefit from
using The Former Railway Club on a personal basis, such as, for private
family functions. These private events include birthdays, engagements
and so on. The benefit to the charity is that the users are happy to make
a payment for hiring the venue to assist with a modest model of
continued maintenance and upkeep ofthe property. The income
generated from this type ofservice is critical to the running ofThe Former
Railway Club.
Uptake for hall hires has been steady butsubdued in 2025. Maybe due ta
factors such as an increased number ofvenues in the locality offering a
similar service, cost ofliving or a general shift to having certain types of
events hosted at professional venues.
The Former Railway Club continues to offergreat convenience and
amenability ofservices such as parking, disability bathrooms, hotwater,
heating, prayer area,
a new music system, kitchen area and a breakout
veranda at the rear of the site.
Primarily, it is to continue its charitable activity.
