CHIPPING SODBURY ROTARY CLUB

It is with great sadness that we learned of the recent passing of Liz Isaac, until recently a member of our club and a past member and twice President of Yate and District Rotary Club.

Our two boules teams reached the finals of the annual Rotary District boules competition. Wonderboules, after beating our other club team Thunderboules in the semi final were then defeated by Clifton Rotary Club in the final.

Our first Rotary Tea Dance of the new season was held on 7th October and was a great success with 78 attendees, enjoying an afternoon of music and dance, a free raffle and light refreshments served up by the ladies of Chipping Sodbury Inner Wheel Club. The next event will take place on 11th November in Chipping Sodbury Town Hall from 2 to 4pm. All are welcome, Donations all go to dementia related causes.

Once more this year the club is delighted to support the inspirational work undertaken by the One25 Charity, a small organisation operating out of St Pauls, which provides support and advice to vulnerable women and girls in Bristol who are street sex workers, have a drug dependency or might be subject to domestic abuse. For their Big Give Christmas Appeal project the club has pledged a financial donation.

A number of club members and partners enjoyed a day out in Malmesbury recently, visiting the abbey, joining a guided tour of the town rounded off with an excellent lunch.

Our club meets on the first and third Mondays of each month at Chipping Sodbury Golf Club at 6.30pm. We are a friendly group of men and women and we welcome new members. Why not come along for a taster evening. For more information drop us a line at csrotaryapplication@gmail.com
