"The O50 Club" was launched on 24 May 2006 when over 120 people met to hear
Stephen Robertson of "Scotland the What" fame reminisce about his early life in Cults and his show biz career. Donations were collected for the Cerebal Palsy Association which Steve supports.

At that inaugural meeting a list of potential topics was complied from those present. These were be used to develop the future programme of speakers and other activities.

Following the successful launch a Constitution was agreed. Click here to view the Mission Statement and Constitution.

O50 membership runs from 1 May to 30 April each year. The membership fee for the membership year is £10. Members are asked to pay a meeting fee of £1 for each meeting attended.
