We’re a small, friendly club of enthusiastic and active volunteers who want to enjoy ourselves and give our time and talents to help others both locally and overseas.
The Rotary motto is “Service above Self”, and we are people from all walks of life who share a common interest in helping others.
Whenever there is a disaster in the world where people need emergency help, we are happy to respond with donations, ShelterBoxes, Aquaboxes or what ever is needed. Whether it is flooding in Somerset, Flooding in the north of Endgland, landslides in Nepal, Hurricanes in the Carribean and the USA, Typhoons in the Phillipines, we look for ways we can help.
We operate a charity - The Rotary Club of Billericay Benevolent Fund (Reg. No. 292276) and support many activities both locally, nationally and internationally either by organising events or directly donating money.
A look at our donations to Charities and Good Causes in the year 2021-22 tells its own story. A total of over £25,000 was raised and given away. Other donations have included two local Hospices, Smile Train, a major project in Madagascar and our new international project to sponsor two children in Kenya to attend Senior School.
We take disadvantaged Kids on a KIDSOUT day out, support the Chernobyl Childrens LifeLine for Children from the Ukraine and Belarus on a lifesaving visit to the UK, taking them out of excursions.
Each Year we support the Billericay Fun Run to raise sponsorship money and complete a Blindfolded walk for ORBIS the sight charity.
We support other events in the town to ensure their maximum impact such as Christmas Market, Summerfest, Lake Meadows Fireworks Display, Santa Sleigh at Christmas, etc. etc.
