Welcome to the website of the Rotary Club of Durham

The Rotary Club of Durham is part of Rotary North East (District 1030) serving North-East England.

The city of Durham is dominated by the Castle and Cathedral situated on the rocky “peninsula” – a World Heritage site –with the River Wear flowing past on three sides. To quote Sir Walter Scott:-
Grey towers of Durham
Yet well I love thy mixed and massive piles
Half church of God half castle 'gainst the Scot

Things have changed and even the Scots are now welcome! In fact, all visiting Rotarians can be sure of a very warm welcome at any of our weekly meetings.


Park your car in Durham City on Saturdays for £2.00 all day!  More information.
