Our History
Seeing the need for a place for ex-military people to have a place to spend their leisure time, this institute was built to provide that facility. We've been around since the end of the first World War.
We obtained charity status in 2001, and now provide a wider range of activities for the community

We are committed to providing first-class leisure facilities for the elderly people of Ashington and the surrounding area.
We are anxious to hear from small groups who would be interested in using our facilities, so that our institute can broaden it's offer, and people who may feel isolated can have a place to socialise and relax in
