Funding for Ralston ROAR Club, which has been running successfully for the past 14 years, is being withdrawn at the end of July 2025. Rather than allow the club to stop functioning, the members and volunteers felt strongly that the club should continue. Alternative funding has been secured and so from 1st August, 2025 the club will be renamed Ralston Seniors Club, has a new Management Board and will continue to meet every Friday in St Mark’s. Whilst previously under the auspices of ROAR Connections for Life, the club will now come under the umbrella of St Mark’s Church. The club offers a pre-lunch, gentle physical activity followed by soup and sandwiches and concludes with an entertainment or social activity.
