The work of the Community and EnvironmentalTeam is twofold. Through its own initiatives, it provides facilities for the local community, and through assistance with local community groups it provides support to a variety of local events.
Currently our biggest financial commitment is to fund trips on the River Thames – via the RiverTime Boat Trust (RTBT) – to allow access to the river for a variety of disadvantaged groups, ranging from schoolchildren to seniors. The boat is specifically adapted to be accessible for those in wheelchairs.
The Club to support environmental schemes/initiatives in the local area and the current budget includes financial resources to help with this idea. Opportunities are currently being sought to enable this ambition to be achieved.
In addition to our own events, the Team provides support, through the efforts of individual Club members for local events such as:
The Gerrards Cross Christmas Fair.
The Chalfont St Peter Christmas Fair.
The GX Summer Fun Run.
Further afield:
The Marlow Santa Fun Run.
Children in Need collection @ Heathrow.
Local Charities:

All these events provide reinforcement and awareness in the local community of the existence and activities of Misbourne Matins Rotary Club. In addition it provides support to the Membership, Youth and Fundraising Committees within the Club.
