detailsAbout us
Welcome to the home page of Rotary@Kingsholm
Rotary@Kingsholm is the "twilight" Rotary Club in Gloucester in that we are most fortunate to meet early evening at the home of Premiership Rugby Club - Gloucester Rugby.
Meetings are every Monday 5.45 for 6.15pm in the clubs prestigious stands at Kingsholm (other than bank holidays). Most of our meetings consist of dinner followed by interesting talks. Many of our members who work around Gloucester find this a convenient time for relaxing informally at the end of the day.
The club has members from a wide range of professions and interests who assist local charities and raise funds for many good causes. We also run programmes for youth development.
By pressing the programme button above you can learn about our meetings and events. We always welcome potential new members to join in our fun, fellowship and charity work.
