About us
The Rotary Club of Helston-Lizard (RCHL) was chartered on 29th of April 1987 with 28 members. At the start of Club Year 2024, we currently have 32 active members plus 5 Honorary members.
The Club serves the community around the town of Helston and the Lizard Peninsula and is part of Rotary District 1175, covering 83 Rotary Clubs in the South West Peninsula of Devon, Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly.
At this week's meeting we welcomed John Spence, Treasurer and Launch Authority, and Andy Branwell, Community Manager, of the Lizard RNLI Station. John and Andy were invited as our guests to receive a donation of £1000 for their station. The donation was presented by Immediate Past President Peter Mueller. Pete had decided to nominate the Lizard RNLI as the recipients of his President's Charity donation from his year in office.![]()
At a recent meeting President Henry had the pleasure on inducting our newest member, Jason King, into our club.

What we are currently doing:
We held our third community breakfast at the Inn & Still in Helston. Our objective is to entertain members of our local community who are new to the area or are alone and wish to meet new people. We would also welcome the homeless. Our aim is to provide this in a relaxed and informal environment.
We will hold the breakfast on the first Saturday of the month, the next being planned for the 3rd of August - 10am.
