Popular Worthing youth club of 1970s and 1980s is hosting a reunion

A reunion is being held for a Worthing youth club that was popular in the 1970s and 1980s.

Members of Offington Park Methodist Youth Club are looking to reconnect with friends from 50 years ago.

Donna Churchill, née Stevens, said: "As well as weekly club nights, we enjoyed Methodist Association of Youth Clubs (MAYC) London weekends, youth club weekends (YCWE), fundraising activities, annual dinners, musical / talent shows, discos and Christmas shows."

Two’s Company, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Wind in the Willows, Cinderella, A Christmas Dream and Follow the Star are just a few of the shows that Donna remembers.

The youth club reunion will be held on Saturday, October 11, at 7pm at The Thomas A Becket pub in Tarring.

Donna said: "Were you a member of Offington Park Methodist Youth Club in the 1970s or 1980s? We are hoping many past members will come along to reconnect with friends from all those years ago and share happy memories."
