It is with heavy hearts that the trustees of NOCS announce that our premises at 27 Salisbury St, Blandford will be closing due to a critical lack of funding. Unfortunately, we are no longer able to sustain the ongoing costs of the building and staffing.
Our full schedule of clubs will continue until 13 May 2026, after which activities at the premises will cease.
We are deeply grateful to our staff, volunteers, supporters, and members who have helped make NOCS a vibrant, supportive community. Your contributions over the years have meant more than we can express.
Although the premises will close, this is not the end of NOCS. The trustees remain committed to our mission and will continue our work on a pop‑up, ad‑hoc basis, without the overheads that have become unsustainable.
Please keep an eye on this page for updates on future activities and ways to stay involved.
