Farsley Working Mens Club
The Working Mens Club was originally founded to provide the
Victorian working man with an environment in which to socialise
after a hard day’s work.
In 1935 in the heart of the village
Farsley Working Mens Club
was
founded, providing membership to men only and permitting ladies
as guests. No doubt through the war years it became a regular
meeting place and one where the local people could exchange news
and more than likely comfort from the harshness of the 1939-1945
war.
After the war, changes were made to memberships and ladies
started to have a greater involvement in the running of the Farsley
Working Mens Club. Membership today is steadily growing and
runs into triple figures.
Farsley village has always been a place that is recognised for its
community spirit and friendliness and no where is this reflected more
than in Farsley Working Mens Club. Along with quiz/race nights,
and regular live entertainment, the club also recognise all local
festivals. Easter, Summer Barbeques, Bonfire Night and Halloween
are all big events on the calendar where all members and everyone
in the local community gather to make the events organised a
pleasure for men, women and especially the children.
Farsley Festival is the highlight of the year when the whole village
gets together and Farsley Working Mens Club were privileged to
play host to some of the live bands who entertained and made
the party go with a swing. One of the best times of the year is the
spectacular Christmas Pantomime provided free for all the club
members children.
Farsley Working Mens Club offer a wide selection of drinks in their
fully licensed bar which include a range of real ales to the discerning
palette. The excellent facilities at Farsley Working Mens Club enable
the premises to be the ideal host for private parties.
Anything from a 90th birthday to a whole wedding reception
can be catered for and they can work with you to tailor make the
entertainment and food to your specifications. For the sports mad
enthusiast, Sky Sports enables their members to keep abreast of their
favourite teams allowing them to cater for most members needs.
Of course, their premises and facilities have full disabled access and
they pride themselves on creating a warm, friendly environment that
everyone including children can feel they can enjoy with family and
friends. If you fancy popping down to sample the local hospitality,
you will not be made more welcome.
We encourage you to pay them a visit to be part of the Farsley
Community Spirit that is widely known throughout the whole of West
Leeds.
