The Gaming Club Network (GCN) is a voluntary organisation, created in 1999, set upon the idea of bringing together like-minded people to encourage others to try our hobby. Our purpose is to provide the opportunity for individuals and member clubs to participate in the hobby of collecting, painting and gaming with miniatures, table top games and role play games.

The GCN strives to meet the following six objectives:

• To assist running local gaming events
• To support club activities
• To assist running games at local and national levels
• To provide a forum for gaming clubs
• To facilitate club development
• To promote good communications between Gaming Clubs, and games originators, manufacturers and retailers

Our member clubs all adhere to certain standards which set them apart as safe and fun organisations to be part of. All GCN member clubs have:

• A committee of at least three members to run affairs openly
• Public liability insurance to protect members against accident
• A good standard of club rules and a club constitution
• A child protection policy
• A policy of submitting the committee for Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) Disclosure
