A Message from the Secretary - Welcome to the Web site of The Association of Conservative Clubs Ltd!

You'll find Conservative Clubs all over the U.K. Some of the most popular Clubs with the strongest membership are to be found in the safest Labour seats.

If you are already a member of a Club affiliated to the Association of Conservative Clubs (A.C.C.) then you may already be aware of the work we do. If, however, you are not yet a member, then I hope this article will be of interest to you and prompt you to join your local Conservative Club.

The Association of Conservative Clubs was formed in 1894 and its objects are to assist and encourage the formation of Clubs, to support the principles and aims of The Conservative Party and to assist in the management of Conservative Clubs. There are over 1,000 A.C.C. affiliated Conservative Clubs spread widely over the U.K.

The A.C.C. has a national structure through local Federations, Area and Regional Club Councils. Frequent Conferences and Meetings are held and there is a continuous exchange of information on current legislation affecting Private Members' Clubs and political issues.

A monthly magazine is published by the A.C.C. containing management and legal advice, together with news from Clubs and other regular features. A reciprocal arrangement, "Inter-Affiliation Ticket Scheme", provides members of one Club with the opportunity of enjoying the facilities of other Member Clubs.

The title of your local Club could either be Conservative, Constitutional, Salisbury, Beaconsfield or Unionist, or any combination of these titles, but these Clubs all have one thing in common - they are members of the A.C.C., and share similar objects in promoting Conservatism and providing social and sporting venues for their members.

Many Conservative Associations are grateful to their local Conservative Clubs for providing office accommodation and a convenient meeting place for the Party and their social events. A close and mutually beneficial working relationship between the Conservative Clubs and the Conservative Associations is a matter to which the A.C.C. attaches great importance.

If you wish to join a Conservative Club or find out more about the A.C.C. then please write to me at the address given below. If you would like to use your local Conservative Club for political or social events then please contact the Club Secretary.
