The UKCA, established in Limassol for many years, became a Limited company in 2004.  It is a company limited by Guarantee and not for profit and aims to provide social amenities and activities for its members.  When it was first established one of the club’s main objectives was to promote good relations with the Cypriot community.  While this is no longer a key objective the UKCA still supports local charities by raising funds through a Christmas draw.

The club is managed by a Board of Directors who give their time free and who meet monthly.

Membership is open to all British Citizens.  Non British spouses and partners join as Associate members.

The joining fee is €20. The annual membership fee is €35.  Both fees are per member and inclusive of VAT.

The clubhouse, located at 37 Thermopylon Street, has an air conditioned bar and separate TV lounge with satellite TV, an air conditioned inside function room and a bright and airy function room with patio doors that open on to a paved garden area.   The club house can be hired for private functions and members often do this.

A much used facility is a well stocked Library to which new books and DVDs are added monthly. 50 cents is charged for each book/DVD taken out on a month’s loan.

As well as the regular weekly activities (see activities list) there is an active social committee which organises ad hoc events.  These are many and varied and include dinner dances, musical evenings, BBQs, lunches, international food evenings, variety shows, charitable events and much, much more.

A free magazine is published every month, except August, containing a variety of articles and local information.

Many members make use of a facility to hire items of medical equipment, e.g. wheelchairs and walkers, for visiting relatives and friends.

New members are welcomed.  If you are new to Limassol joining the UKCA is a way to meet new people and perhaps partake in an activity that that you have been meaning to do for a while.
