We are a friendly, sociable and diverse group of individuals aiming to support local, national and international objectives with a slew of projects that include fundraising for humanitarian and other charitable causes, promoting health awareness and most importantly taking an active role in our local community. We operate under the general auspices of "Rotary International" a worldwide organisation. Our Club. Our Club is open to all those who wish to contribute to good causes and are interested in "Service".
We are a practical, caring and fun-loving group which meets at 7pm every 2nd and 4th Monday of each month at the excellent Norton House Hotel in Mumbles. A typical meeting takes the form of a meal followed by a discussion of the issues at hand and normally finishes at about 9pm. Sometimes we also welcome visiting speakers to talk on a variety of topics, Some of our fundraising projects such as "indoor-horse racing", the Annual Champagne Lunch, fashion shows and quiz nights are as much fun for us as they are important for the charities. Occasionally, we also arrange outside visits.
