Beer Festival Message
Due to the current Covid guidelines we regret that we are unable to hold our annual Beer Festival as planned in April 2021. We will continue to monitor the situation over the coming months and hope to be able to hold the Festival again in 2022. We thank you again for your continued support and we look forward to welcoming you back to the Festival when it is safe for us to do so.

I have taken over from our immediate
past President Len Rainford, who helped steer the club through a difficult 2020.
The public health emergency has caused difficulties for the normal functioning of the club.We have not been able to raise funds in our normal way as we had to cancel our annual beer festival last year and our annual Christmas float was forced to run with a slimmed down format. However, the float still managed to raise £2400 from our ever generous public via online donations.
As we go forward into 2021 we will need to be prepared to start our normal programmes of community, youth and international support when society hopefully returns to normal later in the year. This will go hand in hand with a return to our normal fund raising activities.
We will continue to meet weekly via zoom to maintain club cohesion, social interaction and to plan for a resumption of our normal activities.
We are keen to accept new members from all walks of life in order to forge a progressive and forward thinking club and we plan to host social functions with the aim of attracting new members.
Service above self is the rotary motto and any work done for the benefit of others rewards us all both socially and emotionally.
Rotary International is an international service organisation whose stated purpose is to bring together business and professional leaders in order to provide humanitarian service and to advance goodwill and peace around the world. It is a non-political and non-religious organisation open to all.
