Thinking about this from the position of say someone who has invested in a club only to have all the investment lost because the club police close the club. Unfortunately for swingers the increasingly acceptability of swinging is not matched by an acceptability in the eyes of the law. The common law of keeping a disorderly house can relate to public decency, being a nuisance to neighbours or even the simple possibility that lewd acts may take place. All it takes is one or two complaints and the police can close a club or even stop private house parties. Opening a club and investing money, time and effort into making it a success can be scuppered by your competitors, someone you've annoyed or by someone who disagrees with your beliefs and or life style. |

Not being a "night owl", I wish clubs would open before the norm which seems to be 9pm  By the time these clubs get going, I`m ready to go to bed and sleep! One of the reasons why I like Chams!  |

Swinging clubs are here for one reason and one reason only, and thats to make money. You can have a ideological view on it, but at the end of the day a club has turn a profit.
Clubs make a profit from single guys, they pay more money than couples and single fems. These clubs are down back streets to protect blokes that are playing away without the knowledge of their other halves.
So in conclusion, it makes sense from a business point of view to have them out of the high street.  |

They`re down "backstreets" because that`s where the Local Authority planning department says they must me to keep the local residents happy. One on a quiet industrial estate was recently told to close by the Local Authority. There were no complaints by local residents because they knew the club was bringing employment to taxi firms etc. |

Do you know any business that’s NOT run to make a profit? "
One Scottish club states on its website that "we're ran by swingers just for fun — we charge just enough to cover our costs" so it would seem that not everyone is out to make a profit. |

Not all clubs are down backstreets, indeed the club which has attracted much comment recently is in a very pleasant residential area. |

I also know of a club that is not out to make a proffit, its run by swingers for fun. It is a normal hotel weekdays and a swingers club friday and sat.
Our fave local swingers club was shut down recently by the council, as locals complained about traffic noise. This club was on a industrial site, not even near the village. They just wanted a excuse to shut it down basically, leaving the owners with thousands of pounds worth of debt. They had also just got it to a very nice standard. Ppl should just leave well alone if its doing no-one any harm. Im gald to say the owners have now opened a new place not too far from the old one. And are at the moment not running at any profit due to the debts from the old club to pay off. Its ppl like these who make swinging a plesant experience for all who attend. They give their all to the place and make sure everyone has a good time.
Its the 21st century ppl who say these places are bad places need to get a grip xxxx |

I suspect very few people, apart from some seriously moralistic/ religious types, genuinely think "these places are bad places" - they probably just don't want them next door. |

Presumably little back street locations are cheaper for the owners than prime commercial locations, so they either make more profit or can be cheaper. Most swingers are not too fussed about the location of the club, so there is no need for a prime site |

"just a thought,being a weekly visitor to chams,can the police raid it seeing as its a private club?"
Yes, if the police can convince a Sheriff/ magistrate to issue a warrant or if they believe a serious crime has been committed.

As a regular visitor to Chams, you will probably have seen the police station barely a 1/4 mile away. I`ve no doubt they know all about Chams and what it`s about and I dare say a few of the police are members too! I should think you have very little to worry about though because I`m sure that the management of Chams would put their no so inconsiderable amount of investment at risk by doing something stupid and getting the place closed down. Not only have they recently had the sun roof extension and the additional hotel rooms added, but they also own the Newport site plus the three Greenhouse gay bars. Too much to lose. |
