A Message from our Joint Presidents
Although the Rotary Club of Tiverton is part of an international organisation, much of the help we are able to give is to the local community.
With the Rotary Club of Exmoor, we help in organising the yearly Exmoor Junior Challenge, for which nearly 500 youngsters, many from local junior schools, take part in a 16 mile trek over Exmoor.
For local families we organise a Fun Day in the summer holidays, this year (2024) at the Tiverton Rugby Club. At Chrismas we have our Xmas Grotto at the Tiverton Market which is always very popular and excellent value for money. The Market is also the site for our populat Dog Shows.
Other local charities which we help are the Churches Housing Action Team (CHAT) and Uplift. In the winter months we are able to provide "warm spaces" in conjunction with the Tiverton Library.
We arrange Ready, Steady Read with Rotary in three Tiverton Primary schools and also present "Unsung Heroes" awards at ten schools.
We also assist people in need in other countries, through our Rotary Foundation charity and support ShelterBox which gives support in disaster affected parts of the world and we help charities assisting relief of poverty in southern African countries.
At our weekly meetings we enjoy fellowship, usually with a visiting speaker. Also available is an e-club, an online Rotary organisation for members requiring more flexible meeting times.
Our motto is "Service Above Self", which is what we try to do.
