Only two countries now remain endemic.
We’ve reduced cases by 99.9% since 1988
One of the most popular events on our calendar, the regular DNAPQuizzes raise a lot of money for our local charities, supported by the Rotary Club of Abingdon.

DetailsLike many Rotary Clubs, we are now meeting both online and face-to-face in "hybrid" meetings. We meet on alternate Wednesday evenings and Friday lunchtimes each month, for an informal drink/meal and chat for about half an hour in person, followed by a more formalised discussion or inspirational talk, streamed via Zoom, in our usual venue: The King's Charles Room (upstairs) in The King's Head and Bell pub in central Abingdon.
