About us

 

We are a very active and friendly Rotary Club and are always keen to welcome new members .If you would like to know more about us you can contact us using the "join us" link at the top of this home page and we can hopefully answer any questions or arrange to meet 

 

HELPING COMMUNITIES

 

We are approached by helpers/carers and charities who need funds or a helping hand, as we are known as willing member of our local community.  

Additionally we offer both practical and financial help of our own accord

Examples of groups that we have recently assisted are:

Schools, musical groups, scouts,  food banks, people needing disability aids, references from social services, families who have just had a set-back.

In fact we seek to assist anyone or group that is in difficulty

As Rotary is a worldwide organisation we make donations wherever they are needed; floods, storms, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, famines, among others.

 

WE ENJOY OURSELVES

 

At club level we organise events of all types that keep us cheerful, while we are arranging the kind of assistance described above.  For example, musical events, fish ’n chip evenings, quizzes, meals out, visits to interesting places, occasionally weekends away, even abroad.

We arrange walks for the able, dinners for all, B-B-Qs.  We generally organise at least one social event per month.  For the less mobile garden parties, visits to the theatre.  And many more.

We meet weekly for a very reasonably priced dinner and to discuss our business.   We invite speakers to talk about what they or their organisations do.  Weekly meetings are not compulsory but members are encouraged to attend so as to keep up with club developments.

 

WE RAISE FUNDS

 

Many of our ways of helping communities require money so we have to raise funds.
Over the past ten years we have raised well over £100,000 for charity.
We have an annual swimathon and a very popular Open Gardens event . We organise supermarket collections in addition to towing Santa and his sleigh around the streets at Christmas and rest at busy pedestrian points where families and children can chat to Santa.

 

ILLNESS

 

If any member is ill we visit them and keep in touch, send flowers and cards.

 

SOCIAL MEDIA

 

We maintain social media accounts and run a website so that the public and our members can see what we are doing and planning.

Some of the charities we have supported are listed below

Local Foodbanks , Loaves & Fishes , Handy Ladies , Signpost Young Carers , Cherry Tree Project , St Annes Hospice , Ukraine appeal , Turkey Syria Earthquake fund , Westmoreland Primary School , Kidneys for life , Walthew House , End Polio Now , ABC Childrens Charity , Positive Arts , Disaster Aid , Read Easy , Cataract Operations in India  , St Josephs Primary School , Annie's Orphans , Francis House , Alex Hulme Foundation , Pure Insight , Rotary Foundation , Fresh.
