Rotary@Kingsholm is Gloucester’s “twilight" rotary club. We meet early evening at Kingsholm, the home of premiership rugby, Gloucester Rugby, situated in Worcester St.
Meetings are held every Monday (except bank holidays) @ 5.45pm for 6.15pm in the club’s prestigious main stand; we aim to finish by 8pm. Many of our members from Gloucester find this a good time to meet up. Most meetings consist of dinner followed by discussions about planned and current community support activities and / or hearing interesting talks from a variety of speakers on local matters. The dress code is relaxed and no peculiar customs are involved; we just have fun helping other people that need it.
The club has members from a wide range of occupations, businesses and interests who provide help and support, both practical and financial to local charities good causes and organisations, e.g. LINC and Kingsholm School We also run programmes to help young people realise their full potential.
