We are the longest-established Rotary Club in Cambridgeshire and celebrated our Centenary in 2022. We are one of 46,000 clubs with 1.4m members worldwide, with unlimited opportunities for local and international engagement and co-operation. We welcome visiting Rotarians and new members from all walks of life who live or work in the City and the surrounding area

Our members make an active contribution to the local and international community. Some of our work is detailed in the banners and the 'What We Do' menu at the top of this page. In 2023 we raised £35,000 for charities helping Ukraine. In 2024 we raised £16,000, divided between four local children's mental health charities. In 2025 our focus was on support for three schools in Africa, who received £4,000 each, and a contribution to maternity care in Uganda. Members are also personally involved in local charity events and other learning opportunities for young people.

We enjoy a range of fellowship events including walks, concerts, theatre & museum visits, quiz nights and bowls
