I assume you are talking about the UK. In my experience, the 60s and 70s had separate folk song and folk dance clubs (they did in manchester in 1969-72 anyway!) but now both have disappeared to be replaced by ceilidh societies in some universities. Places like Sheffield, Exeter, Cambridge seem to have very thriving such societies. Others, it's non-existent. Not sure why except it could be ... local thriving folk scene, graduates sticking around and continuing to be involved. The inter-varsity folk dance festival in March is a good central meeting place, though a significant proportion are not current students.
