Hello and welcome, you’ve found SETTLE ROTARY on the web.

We're a friendly bunch of around 20 people who volunteer in the Settle community, working on projects and raising money, as well as enjoying informal social activities throughout the year. If that sounds like something you’d enjoy, we’d like to meet you.

We were blessed with excellent weather and at least 150 people enjoyed a relaxing Sunday in the shade of a large marquee eating the wonderfully tender hog roast supplied by Adrian Procter and the delicious puddings provided by members and their partners. The Settle and Giggleswick Brass Band were on great form and also Clive and Spencer on vocals and saxaphone - there was even some dancing!
