Southwell has a thriving and active community life, with a wide range of clubs and societies. If your interests lie in Bridge, Dominos or Bowls; Football, Rugby or Tennis; Girlguiding, Amateur Dramatics or wildlife watching, then we have something for you!
In this section you can find out how you can get involved in your local community across an enormous and varied range of sporting, outdoor and cultural activities, hobbies and pastimes, voluntary community support and environmental work, or simply because you enjoy the company of others.
Southwell offers residents a choice of over 90 clubs, societies and sports groups, many with multiple age groups or providing a diverse range of activities and skills. Southwell U3A, for example, offers over 70 different groups or activities. Our groups in Southwell cater for every age range, from mothers and babies through to teenagers, middle age and senior citizens.
Community groups, clubs and other local organisations are able to promote themselves and their activities in our Directory of Groups and in the Town Diary. We also offer opportunities to promote your events on noticeboards around the town and on strategically placed banners, such as on The Burgage.
