What does Rotary Club of Perth do?

We're for Communities - Local and international

Who We Are     

We’re a welcoming group of men and women who meet for fellowship, fun, and community service. Founded in 1917, the Rotary Club of Perth is one of Scotland’s longest-established clubs. We’ve evolved with the times while keeping our core ethos of “Service Above Self.”

Our members come from all walks of life, united by a shared goal — making a positive difference locally, nationally, and internationally.

What We Do

We run and support a variety of community events and projects, including:

• Perth Silent Auction – our flagship fundraising event supporting local charities.
• Perth Charity Fayre – giving community groups a stall to showcase their services
• Perthshire Classic Car Tour – a fun day out raising money for charity.
• Annual Charity Golf Day – combining sport, fellowship, and fundraising.
• Youth Projects – school quizzes, writing competitions, bake-offs, RYLA leadership awards, RotaKids, and the PKC Well Read Awards.

We also get hands-on from litter picking and gardening to landscaping for schools, hospitals, and charities, always aiming to improve our community in practical ways.
