About us
Welcome to Newbury Rotary Club
Rotary is all about "Service above Self".
- We provide resources and support for local community groups.
- We organise events and community service programmes that embrace the young, and the not so young, around Newbury.
- We provide local fundraising and awareness creation support for global health, social welfare and disaster response campaigns such as End Polio Now, Desks for Ukerewe and various items of support for Ukraine.
- And we have fun and fellowship doing it!
Newbury Rotary is a friendly club, currently with around 30 members representing men and women of all ages from early 40's upwards, from all walks of life and living in and around Newbury. The one thing we all have in common is our wish to offer our skills and some of our spare time and energy to help others.
We meet twice a month on Mondays at 6pm at the Donnington & Co Hotel in Newbury and on alternate weeks at social gatherings in and around the town.
Contact us to come along and meet us at one of our regular Monday meetings and social gatherings, if you are interested in getting involved and joining us at Newbury Rotary.
You will be most welcome!
