About us
At the Rotary Club of Blackpool Sunrise, we are people of action—friends, neighbours, and professionals working together to create lasting change in our community and around the world.
Since 1996, our largest local project, the Annual Christmas Tree Appeal, has brought joy to thousands of local children and families. In partnership with Tesco Superstore Blackpool, we collect and distribute more than 20,000 gifts every year, ensuring that no child wakes up without a present on Christmas morning. This longstanding initiative embodies our commitment to supporting those who need it most right here in Blackpool.
Our reach extends far beyond our hometown. Since 1986, our largest international project has focused on supporting the Blind Rehabilitation Village in Buigiri, Tanzania. Over the decades, Sunrise Rotarians have raised and donated thousands of pounds to improve healthcare, education, accessibility, and employment opportunities for residents of the village—helping empower individuals and strengthen the entire community.
Everything we do—locally and globally—is made possible by the dedication, compassion, and generosity of our members.
Join us. Be part of something bigger. Help us make the world a better place.
