About Us

Skipton Rotary & Rotary in general - see who we are and what we do!


The Rotary Club of Skipton was formed in 1930 and currently has an active and honorary membership of 49 men and women.  New Members are always welcome, indeed essential, to maintain a thriving club. Putting it simply, Rotarians are volunteers, trying to do good in the community, whether locally or abroad, and proud to be of service.  Locally we are involved with community, youth and environmental projects around 'Craven' and give grants to deserving young people, local charities, clubs & organisations.

However, Rotary is also a Global Organisation with perhaps the largest charitable status 'out there' and helps throughout the World wherever needs exist and help is required.  

The Club was proud to receive the Freedom of Craven District in March 2023 in recognition of it's services to the community.

Skipton Rotary Club welcomes visiting Rotarians and guests wishing to take a look at what we do, perhaps with a view to membership.  If you are interested in coming to one of our weekly meetings, please contact either the Club Secretary, Mark Stewart-Clarke, or our Membership Officer, Michelle Heyworth, as follows: -

Alternatively, you may make contact through any Rotarian who is known to you.
