WILMSLOW AND DISTRICT ROTARY 

We are friendly and dual-gender. Our usual meeting day is a Tuesday at 6.45 pm for 7.00 pm. We do a range of things when meeting including planning projects and socialising. We normally have a montly speaker meeting at the Pinewood Hotel, 180 Wilmslow Road, Handforth, Cheshire, SK9 3LF, where we start the evening with a one-course meal.

Our most recent "large" activity was the Scarecrow Festival (see below) and we are just starting to plan for our Christmas activities which include various collections with Father Christmas as well as providing Christmas boxes/sacks for children who may receive little at Christmas time.


This year's Wilmslow Scarecrow Festival event ran from Monday 23 June to Sunday 13 July 2025 (with a number of scarecrows staying up for the Wilmslow in Bloom judging) when scarecrows could be in seen in and around Wilmslow.



Dorothy (Chelsea Flowers of Wilmslow) was the overall winner for 2025.
