A tribute to Lesley & Derek Ruse
In 2025 when the club was 12 years old, it celebrated a landmark year, as it entered the techno world with a dedicated website.

BVFC believes money should never get in the way of friendship. It is a Community Organisation, run by volunteers, with a true community spirit. It does not charge membership fees and any event it runs is based on a break even basis. As a result the club does not have the funds of its own to support development of this nature.
In 2024 the club witnessed the sad closure of In-Touch Magazine. A local source of community news, ran by Lesley & Derek for over 50 years.
From the very beginning of the club in 2013, In-Touch has continually supported it with free advertising. This made it possible to reach out and bring friendship to so many local residents, making it possible for them to enjoy the friendship the Club offers.
This website will make it possible to stretch out its hand of friendship in a new way to so many more people.
At our 2024 Christmas Party it gave us great pleasure to present flowers and to thank Lesley & Derek for making it possible and ironically, for making it possible to continuously bring community news to the area.
