About us


  

 

Pictured at our Handover Meeting are outgoing President Mandy Penfold, incoming joint President David Knight and newly inducted member Narinder Singh. Having stepped down as President, Mandy is taking on a new role as Chair of Impact Oadby & Wigston (see below). 

Welcome to the Rotary Club of Oadby which was chartered in 1962 and currently has 30 members. 

The 2025/2026 Rotary Year sees some major changes in the way our Club operates. 

The Rotary Club of Oadby will revert to being a lunchtime club meeting every Thursday (12.00 for a 12.30 start) at Glen Gorse Golf Club. 

At the same time the Club has sponsored a new Companion Club. Impact Oadby & Wigston will meet in the evenings (6.00 - 7.00) on the first and third Thursday of the month. Planned venues are The Grange and Bru in Oadby. Impact Oadby & Wigston is an integral part of the Rotary Club of Oadby and starts with 11 members from the existing Club and one new member (see above). 

Both groups are looking to attract new individual and corporate members.

Our club is part of the worldwide organisation that is Rotary International. 1.2 million neighbours, friends, and community leaders who come together to create positive, lasting change in our communities and around the world.

We have been active in the local community of Oadby for over 60 years running our own projects and supplying volunteers and funds for those run by other organisations in the community.

We also have a great track record in the completion of health and education projects in Africa and India.
