Welcome to the home page of Rotary@Kingsholm
Hi all, welcome to the home page of Rotary@Kingsholm.
Normally I would be telling you about when we meet, what we do at our meetings, about our members and how to find out more about us. Unfortunately we do not live in normal times, however we still meet on line each week with a range of activities so that we continue to engage with each other. We also have an informal WhatsApp group.
The club has members from a wide range of professions, businesses and interests who provide practical help to local charities and raise funds for many good causes. We also run programmes to help young people realise their full potential.
At the top of this page you will see we have been able to support local charities during lockdown.
We hope to return to normality as soon as possible. Normality would be meeting early evening at the home of Premiership Rugby Club, Gloucester Rugby, situated in Worcester Street, for dinner, followed mostly by interesting talks from a variety of speakers.
To find out about what we have done in the past press the menu button top left and scroll down to Meetings & Events/Future meetings/events. Hopefully our future will reflect these activities. We always welcome potential new members to join in our fun, fellowship and charity work. If a meeting or event interests you please use the contact above to contact us. We look forward to hearing from you and potentially joining us all on a Monday night soon.
John Connell
President 2020 - 21
