Ours is a friendly club of approximately 32 members, formed in February 1924.  We meet each Thursday at 12.30 at the Rose and Crown Hotel in Tonbridge.   Our major fundraising events of the year are the Tonbridge Half Marathon, which we organise jointly with Tonbridge Lions Club, the Rotary Charity Golf Day which was recently held this year at the Dale Hill Golf Course in Ticehurst, and the Tonbridge Christmas Festival which we run on behalf of the local Council for the benefit of the community.

We support many local community groups and events, and raise money for local and international charities, including Shelter Box, Water Aid, Anesthaesia Worldwide, and The Kent, Surrey and Sussex Air Ambulance Trust. In the past we have donated large sums to Carer's First, Compaid, Headway, Hospice in the Weald, The Scott Project, and many other lesser known but essential local charities.The President's main charities for the Rotary year 2018-2019 are Pepenbury and Slideaway, but we will continue our support for traditional beneficieries such as the Royal British Legion, the Tonbridge Child Contact Centre and many others.

Our Community and Vocational Service projects include the  Kids Out Theme Park adventure, Senior Citizens' theatre visits, Country drive & tea, mock interviews at local schools and career mentoring in conjunction with Tonbridge Job centre.
