About us

At Holt and District Rotary we believe in supporting our local community by organising events and raising funds for significant projects as well as providing fellowship for our members. Over the last few years we. have:

  • Raised funds to support an Admiral dementia nurse for the Holt area. 
  • Supported numerous local charities such as East Anglia’s Childrens Hospice, the local Community Cafe, BOOM! (for young carers) and Nelsons Journey. 
  • Organised local events as varied as the Rotary Young Musician competition and diabetes testing with the local medical practice. 
  • Raised funds to provide respite breaks for local young carers
  • Supported literacy development in local primary schools by sourcing books 


Further details on some of the organisation we support can be found by following the connections on our links page.


Whilst we have a strong focus on our local community we also contribute to Rotary International’s projects such as the eradication of polio and the provision of humanitarian support for Ukraine. Rotary has some 35000 clubs around the world providing us with an opportunity to support communities well beyond the UK.


Our charitable activities are managed through the Rotary Club of Holt and District Trust Fund, a registered charity (number 1038711) regulated by the Charity Commission.


We are not just about charity work and seek to arrange regular social activities and visits for members to local places of interest which have included:

  • RAF Marham - home to the new Lightning II fighters 
  • The Newmarket Horse Racing Museum 

Our members (who are both male and female) generally live within 10 miles of Holt and come from a wide range of backgrounds. We meet for a casual lunch twice a month on the second and fourth Tuesdays. 


If you are interested in supporting your local community whilst also having fun then consider joining us or becoming a friend of Rotary and supporting our events. You are most welcome to come along to one of our lunch meetings and find out more about us and how we work. Forthcoming lunch dates and events can be viewed in our calendar - see under Meetings and Events - further information on each event may be available by clicking on it.
