Located in the picturesque market town of Market Harborough, Leicestershire, England we are a thriving and friendly Rotary Club started in 1958. We welcomes visitors from all over the world. We are proud of our club and the contributions Rotary makes to communities both locally and abroad by living up to its motto "Service above Self".

We are a group of local men and women who work together to make other people's lives better. We do this as one branch of the world-wide family of Rotary with over 1.2 million members. We serve our community in many ways. 

We also support International Charities either individually or through Rotary Foundation.

Our club is very active when it comes to help in the community. We assist local school students with their career development through our “Mock Interview” programme and other youth opportunities.

Our major annual fund-raiser is the Rotary SwiMarathon.

In 2011 we held our first SwiMarathon, a community fundraising event held at the Harborough Leisure Centre. This has been a fantastic success, raising enough money for us to be able to give a total of over £100,000 to good causes between 2011 - 2025. It is not an endurance swim, rather a fun team activity, for all ages, where each team swims relay style in one lane of the pool for just one hour, getting sponsorship for doing it. 

The 2026 Swimarathon was a huge success when 31 teams comprising almost 130 swimmers, swam over 3,000 lengths at Market Harborough Leicesure Centre. Over £10,000 was raised which was given to local and Rotary charities. 

It's nearly time for the 2027 SwiMarathon on Saturday March 13th and Sunday March 14th 2027.
