Member Welfare
Our vision as a club is as follows ‘Inclusively supporting the health and wellbeing of our community’. This vision drives our agenda and the plans for our busy welfare team consisting of Zoe and Sam.
The positive welfare of our members is the beating heart of our club, so everything we do underpins the importance of our members health and wellbeing. We also believe that this vision impacts our wider community in and around Farnham by promoting the benefits of a fitter and healthier town.
