As well as fundraising and supporting community projects one of the benefits of being a Rotary member is the friendship and fellowship. As a club we meet once a week to enjoy a meal together and listen to interesting guest speakers. This page will give details of upcoming guest speakers and if you are interested please do get in touch. We welcome visitors with no obligation or pressure to join Rotary.
We are currently meeting on Zoom, if you would like to come along to listen to the speakers then please do get in touch and we'll send you the meeting link. Meeting times now vary between a 10.30am start and a 12pm start and we do discuss a bit of Rotary business before the speaker and there is an opportunity to chat following the meeting.
