Diptford Social Club
Diptford Social Club has been created by village residents wishing to build a more friendly and inclusive society in Diptford. We organised village celebrations for the late Queen's Platinum Jubilee, and now the intention is to run social events throughout the year, as a means of bringing us all together.
Every member of the community is automatically a member of the Club, and there are no membership fees. It you are a resident of Diptford parish, you will always be invited to our events, which we very much hope you will attend.
