  Common Wealth and Duckie are working together to stage The Posh Club in St.Mellons across 2024. The Posh Club is a seasonal showbiz afternoon tea and dancing for swanky senior citizens, elegant elders and glamorous golden girls-a social club for older people (aged 60+).


We want to appoint a Community Promoter to help us identify and support individuals and groups who have yet to attend. The Posh Club brings people together and tackles social isolation and loneliness - the Community Promoter will play an essential role in reaching those who face barriers to attending.
