Welcome to the Wealden Postcard Club Web Page.
The Club meets on the second Friday of every month
at St Paul's Methodist Church Hall, Woodfield Road Northgate Crawley West Sussex.
Doors open at 7:00 p.m. for 8:00 start.

The hall is easily accessible from the M23/A23 and A264. It is about 10 minutes walk from Crawley Town Centre and Railway Station, and about 20 minutes walk from Three Bridges Station. Bus 100 stops outside.

Each meeting consists of a main talk lasting about 45 minutes and a shorter activity, often involving the members, after the refreshment interval. There are two or three dealers at every meeting for you to buy and sell cards. One of our meetings is our Grand Annual Auction and one of the summer meetings is an outing to a nearby town or village.

There is an admission charge of 50p to cover refreshments.

The Club was founded by Michael Goldsmith in 1985 and celebrated its 21st Birthday in April 2006. We are one of the largest and most active Postcard Clubs in the country and are also very friendly, new members or visitors are always welcome. A monthly newsletter is posted to members.
The Club organises the very successful Horsham Postcard Fair in July.

This month’s meeting, Friday 13th January 2012:

Alan Barwick presents a further selection of postcards by Steyning and Storrington photographer W. J. Drewett.

For Part 2, you are invited to bring and show My Three Best Buys of 2011.

Last month, Don Draper gave us an excellent presentation on the History of the British Seaside, a fitting prelude to our Christmas festivities. A big thank you to all who brought goodies to share, and to our “kitchen ladies”, Maureen and Jenny.

Alan is still working on this year’s programme and further details will be given here when I have them. Meanwhile, write in your new diaries our Horsham Postcard Fair on Saturday 21st July 2012 – an event not to be missed!
