Community Support

These pages describe our activities in support of other organizations raising funds for those in need or supporting our local community.


Supporting Our Local Community

The Rotary Club of Billericay is very active in projects and fundraising activities which support charities and organizations in need.

But we recognize we are not the only organization with these objectives, so, where we can, we try to support the activities of other local organzations in their fundraising and similar activities, and in their use of Public Relations tools to spread the word about the great work which Rotary does.

You can find reports on such support by our members in the following pages highlighted on the right.
