The purpose of a local Rotary Club is to connect people who
then work together to help the community and promote
goodwill and peace.

 The Rotary Club of Birstall Luddites has a current membership of 25 men and women
who raise money locally from Christmas Santa Sleigh and Tesco collections,
social and fund raising events through the year.

Money raised allows us to make donations locally, nationally and internationally.

Joining Rotary is your opportunity to make a difference and you will
have fun and make some great friends along the way!

Live around Birstall/Batley/ Heavy Woollen District ?

This is some of what we do annually in the local Community and Internationally.
