Probus Club of Frinton, Walton and District

 

A PROBUS Club is a local association of retired and semi-retired gentlemen who have had some measure of responsibility in any field of worthy endeavour, who are of good character and respected in their communities.

 

The aim of the Club is to provide regular opportunities for members to exercise their minds, expand their interests and to enjoy the good fellowship of new friends.

 

PROBUS is also a Latin word meaning honest and virtuous, from which the English word "probity" is derived.

 

PROBUS Clubs do not exist to raise money for charity, although some choose to run fund-raising events and raffles.
