Welcome to the Website of the Deal / Saint - Omer Twinning Society. You will see from our Website that the principle function of the Society is to encourage and participate in annual family exchanges alternating between Deal and Saint-Omer.
In addition to these exchanges the Society holds regular monthly meetings in Deal Town Hall for members and guests, where speakers are invited to entertain and enlighten us on a variety of subjects; this is normally followed by a free wine and buffet supper where members and guests can socialise.

We also organise lunch and shopping trips to northern France to celebrate Bastille Day in July and Beaujolais Nouveau or Christmas shopping in November.
We are also keen to act as a liaison between other groups and organisations between Deal and the St- Omer area. The current annual membership subscription is £10.00, renewable in March each year and new members are always very welcome. |

Deal Warm Welcome
We are pleased to bring to your attention details of this initiative, aimed at providing somewhere for people to meet up for a bite to eat, cup of something warm and a chance to chat and share.
Deal Warm Welcome is formed by Trinity Church, Leaps & Bounds, St George’s Church, Golf Road Community Centre, Deal Film Club, Salvation Army, Deal Area Foodbank, Deal Rotary Pirates, Chequers Kitchen Cookery School, United Families, Betteshanger Sport & Social Club and Deal Town Council.
Each weekday this winter between 1 November 2022 and 31 March 2023 at least one venue each day will be opening its doors to welcome people. Guests can expect a warm welcome from each venue, refreshments, Wi-Fi and entertainment.
The opening times are:
Mondays Deal Salvation Army, West Street, 12pm – 5pm (starts 14 November)
Golf Road Community Centre, 3pm to 6pm
Tuesdays Trinity Church, Union Road, 12.30pm to 4pm
Golf Road Community Centre, 3pm to 6pm
Wednesdays St George’s Church, High Street, 12.30pm to 4.30pm
Thursdays Leaps & Bounds, Southwall Road, 3.30pm to 6.30pm
Fridays Deal Salvation Army, West Street, 12pm – 5pm (starts 18 November)
The scheme is funded by Deal Town Council and Mayor Cllr Chris Turner says:
“The town’s motto is ‘Welcome the Stranger’ and we don’t want anybody feeling alone and worried about having a warm place to go or being able to get something to eat this winter.
“I would encourage everyone to go along to a Deal Warm Welcome, join in and have a chat. Sharing your time and listening and talking to others can be very rewarding.
“And my thanks go to all the partner organisations whose energy and kindness will make sure everyone in our town can be safe and warm this winter.”
