SADY 2009

On Saturday evening Corinna organized entertainment from the most well know Star to appear at a Plus event for a long time, Craig Harper, who appeared in last year’s Britain’s Got Talent and reached the semi-final.

Craig joined us at Dalesbridge straight from a tour of Spain.

Lucy Smith, Barnet Plus: "I really enjoyed Saturday night’s entertainment; Craig Harper was brilliant, I especially enjoyed him singing to me".

Our Saturday night entertainment at SADY 2009, Craig Harper, (Britain's Got Talent semi-finalist 2008) takes a moment out to talk about PLUS!

National Plus Tennis Tournament

The first Plus National Tennis Tournament took place on Sunday 29th June 2009 at Central Park, Dagenham. There were ten participants in total, from Barking & Dagenham, Redbridge, and Thurrock Plus groups. There was glorious hot weather all afternoon, with rain only appearing just after everyone had left the courts.

Andy Robinson of Redbridge won the Mens Singles title, beating Steve Roast in the final. Meanwhile, in the Ladies Singles championship Sarah Road of Barking & Dagenham narrowly defeated Gemma Crader to take the title.

After the tournament, the participants all went for a celebratory dinner at Cosmo's in Romford. The event proved to be a very popular one and is certain to be staged again next year.

The organisation which is now known as Plus started well over 60 years ago. There have been many changes over the years, to arrive at the organisation as it is now. To learn more about our journey, click here for information about the History of Plus.

“Plus” is a nationwide social and activities organisation for people aged 18 - 35. and also incorporates “Quest” which is for those aged 36 and over. Plus and Quest both offer their members the chance to meet new people, make new friends and enjoy a wide range of weekday and weekend activities on a local, Area and National basis. Hundreds of members meet up each week in around 40 different locations and our events calendar is always full with almost every type of activity you can think of.

As we are a voluntary organisation all activities are organised by members, so active involvement is appreciated, but not required. You can do as much or as little as you feel like. You could help out with organising events, take part or just relax and enjoy the friendly atmosphere. You are sure to be made welcome, whatever your level of interest.

Have a look around our site, find your nearest club, view their page, and go to meet them. We are convinced you will find something to your liking.

Below you will find the National Plus 'River of News' - this is a list of all national scale events, news, event reviews and articles on the website in order of submitted date. Every Plus Area and Group page has their own 'River of News' on their page (click Groups above).

You will also see listed imminent events from across the country on the left hand side of the page. See more events in date order on our Events Calendar, you can search the calendar by the organising group or type of event.
