Using Noto Sans Symbols

I have been using some symbols (card suits etc) from Deja Vu on a Windows system using Lualatex. But I don't see them when I switch the font to Noto Sans Symbols. The font appears to be correctly installed - I can see it in the Control Panel and it's working in MS Word e.g. "The quick ♣ ..."
MWE:
documentclass[a4paper, 11pt, oneside]{memoir}%
usepackage{fontspec}%
usepackage{newunicodechar}
defaultfontfeatures{Scale=MatchUppercase}
%newfontfamily{symbolfont}{Noto Sans Symbols}
newfontfamily{symbolfont}{Deja Vu Sans}
DeclareRobustCommandTs{{symbolfont ♣}}
newunicodechar{♣}{{symbolfont♣}}
begin{document}
Two clubs 2Ts{}
Two clubs 2♣
end{document}
The log file includes the following:
Package fontspec Info: Font family 'NotoSansSymbols(0)' created for font 'Noto

otfinfo -g DejaVuSans.ttf | grep club
has an output, but
otfinfo -g NotoSansSymbols-Regular.ttf | grep club
not. With otfinfo -g <font>
you'll get a list of the symbolic names. otfinfo
needs the fontname with full path if you are not in the fonts directory.

There's a very useful search tool at https://www.fileformat.info
Say, for example, you want to find what fonts support "less than or equal to" you input some or all of that text and find that the symbol is Unicode U+2264. Clicking on the link leads to fonts that support U+2264
In this case, Noto isn't listed which can't really be correct - such a common symbol must be supported. But you can click on to an Adobe Flash link to fonts installed on your local machine and it's in Noto Sans, Noto Serif, Noto Mono, Noto Symbol2 (and many other fonts if you prefer not to use Noto!)
