About us

Welcome to Mid Suffolk Rotary (formerly the Rotary Club of Stowmarket Gipping Valley).

 

We completed 22 years service in Rotary International District 1080 on 28th November 2024 in serving communities across the world and in particular making a difference in the community in which we live.

If you have any additional questions please use the Contact area. 

MAKING A DIFFERENCE.

Mid Suffolk Rotary is based in the Mid Suffolk area. The club covers Stowmarket, Needham Market and most of the villages in Mid Suffolk. It offers many opportunities to become involved for those interested in making a difference to our community.

Through meetings, social events and volunteer projects our members and associate members learn more about the issues we face as a community, partnering with other relevant charities and drawing up plans to respond.

Along with these opportunities, members are also able to meet like minded individuals, often resulting in lifetime friendships being formed.

Members come from different walks of life but we have a shared desire to connect with others to address the challenges affecting our community and the wider world.

If this sounds like something you would be interested in please use the Contact area to get in touch.

Club number 60407     Registered Charity number 1120550
