Clubland background: Founded in the 1920s by Rev. Jimmy Butterworth, Clubland was not just any youth club—it was a place where celebrities like Bob Hope and the Queen visited.From 1922 to 1976, Reverend Jimmy Butterworth transformed the lives of many young people in South London through his Methodist youth club, Clubland. Catering to boys and girls aged 10-18, Clubland became the UK’s leading youth club. It featured impressive amenities like a theatre, gymnasium, and library. These facilities reflected Butterworth’s commitment to providing the best for all members, regardless of background. His own tough beginnings inspired his dedication to helping disadvantaged youth, establishing Clubland as a beacon of hope and development in South London.

Michael Holland, a journalist and filmmaker, has captured the spirit of Clubland through interviews and rare footage. This is a unique chance to see a film that is shown only once a year, in the place it celebrates. After the screening, meet Michael Holland and learn more about how this documentary came to life.
