'What We Do' Main Pages:

Sustaining Members

We would be delighted if members supported the Rotary Foundation by becoming a Sustaining Member. All you need to do is donate $100 per annum and this can be done monthly, quarterly, 6 monthly, or annually. $100 equates to approximately £7 per month

Foundation - Rotary's Own Charity

Pages about Foundation - Rotary's own charity

District Bulletin

The 1240 District Bulletin is published monthly to give information on major Rotary activities in the District.

Crowdfunding has been around since 1885 and in 2022 RGB&I teamed up with Crowdfunder to give Rotary Clubs an opportunity to partake in this tried and tested form of fundraising.

The Environment is now Rotary's 7th Area of Focus

Joining Rotary opens up a world of opportunities and gives you the chance to make a difference in your local community and across the world. It's not all hard work though and our members have a lot of fun and build new friendship's.
