A REUNION of past members of a beloved Newton Abbot social club has been described as a ‘great success’ by the organisers.

Organised by Julie Holmes, the reunion was held at the town’s Constitutional Club in January.

Julie said: ‘The evening was a great success with lots of former members attending.

‘It was fantastic to see so many friends reunited’.

More than £500 was raised for the Royal Marsden Cancer Charity.

And plans for a second social evening are already in the works on Saturday, June 20.

Newton Abbot Post Office Sports and Social Club began in the 1970s.

Located at the former Royal Mail sorting office in Highweek Street, the club boasted 120 postal staff members, BT members and 500 associates during its final years in the early 2000s
