About us

Hi all, welcome to the home page of Rotary@Kingsholm

Rotary@Kingsholm is Gloucester’s “twilight" rotary club. We meet early evening at Gloucester Farmers Club, situated in Sandhurst Lane

Meetings are held every Monday (except bank holidays) @ 5.45pm for 6.15pm, 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.

So, press the meetings and events button above and find out about our programme. We would really welcome new members to enjoy our fellowship and helping those that need it most. If a meeting, or any event interests you, please do use the contact form above to contact us. We look forward to hearing from you and potentially joining us all on a Monday night very soon. Take care and stay safe.
