DetailsAbout us
We are a group of like-minded men and women, all volunteers, who you will probably know
for our Christmas activities.... but this is not all we do!
Take a look at our website to see what else we're involved with! Rotary's motto is 'service above self' and we try to help others, not only in our local community, but internationally too.
We meet every two weeks to catch up, make plans and try to make a difference, so if this is something that appeals to you, then let us know! We appreciate that everyone leads busy lives and can't always commit,
but that's fine too.
So please get in touch in you'd like to know more - we are a friendly bunch!
