Bosworth Rotarians Autumn Action

As Summer fades in our memories (did it really happen at all?) we are now busy with Autumn events and are already planning for Christmas.

Bosworth Park Play Area

Our club will be 50 year's old in October and one of our earliest community activities was to create the children's play area in Bosworth Country Park. Upkeep later transferred to Leicestershire County Council and it has since seen a lot of use. More recently there have been problems water accumulating on the site. We are working in conjunction with David Luther, the Park Warden who is providing the money for the new mulch, stones, etc for the area. Our club members and helpers will be doing the remedial work and we will also be putting in 2 new picnic benches within the area; the money for these has been provided by a grant from Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council. Work should be completed in September.

We hope that the children of visitors and locals alike will continue to enjoy playing area in the lovely surroundings of Bosworth Park.

Village Bench Seats

Our members and helpers have been out and about cleaning and repainting bench seats in our local villages. So far we have completed the tasks in Nailstone, Carlton and Barlestone with more to follow.


Please keep checking this page for news of our events for the rest of 2024, including further involvement in the Polio eradication programme.

 A big "Thank you" to all who have supported our events.

Rotary Club of Market Bosworth - Hello!

Our Club

We are a small, friendly, club with members from Market Bosworth and surrounding towns and villages. Our members are men and women of all ages and backgrounds who are keen to offer their experience and expertise for the benefit of the community and, at the same time, to enjoy fun and fellowship in so doing .

Our Area

The Market Bosworth area is steeped in history. The Battlefield of Bosworth on which King Richard III was killed by the forces of King Henry VII in 1485 is just down the road from our meeting place.

Our Activities

We are a part of Rotary International, which is the world's largest service organisation for business and professional people. We are for Action In The Community - activities and projects that improve the lives of others at home and abroad.
