As club president for the Rotary year 2024-25, I would like to welcome you to our website and thank you for your interest in our club.

We meet on most Monday evenings at Canterbury Golf Club, and we have many interesting guest speakers from a Pantomime Dame to an Air Commodore and anything in-between! Additionally many social events are planned throughout the year. Visitors are welcome at our meetings, whether you are a Rotarian from another club or someone who is just curious about finding out about who we are and what we do. To book attendance please contact the Secretary.

New members (from all walks of life) are always welcome if you are interested simply use the Join us link.

Our programme for the year is available on this web site and is regularly updated along with details of immediately forthcoming events.

But Rotary is not just about social evenings and fascinating guest speakers, we are at our heart, a service organisation. We have an active fundraising programme, supporting local, national and international causes in a range of areas of activity.

Please take some time, to browse the site and if you wish to know more about any aspect of our club and its activities, do not hesitate to contact us via the contact form.

We look forward to meeting you soon

Paul
