Our members are men and women of all age, keen to help other people both locally and around the world. Couples are welcomed and Rotary offers a great way to make new friends and enjoy social activities while helping others.

We volunteer our time to serve the local community by supporting community events, running educational programmes and raising thousands, of pounds for community projects, local charities and global schemes like polio eradication..

Activities range from helping at prostate screening and health awareness events, assisting those affected by flooding and disease, fundraising for local hospices, organising sports tournaments for disabled youngsters and even running dog shows! By joining us in Rotary you can help others in communities near and far.

 

We are looking for volunteers to support group activities, crafts etc.

Do you have an interest in the Arts, enjoy live entertainment? Are you interested in theatre? Are you committed to supporting the arts within your local community theatre?

Oakengates theatre @ the Place are looking for volunteer stewards.

This is an excellent opportunity to work with the theatre team, gain excellent customer service skills and an understanding of the theatre and the performance environment. 

A growing number of people are housebound, isolated and lonely, or at risk of becoming so. 
Bird feeding can provide great pleasure to those who are housebound and a weekly visit by a bird feeding friend can offer valuable regular social contact.
Volunteers are matched with someone in the community (preferably nearby in adjacent streets) who is isolated or at risk of becoming so, with the aim of helping them attract birds to their garden.

Volunteers will visit clients in their home, once/twice a week for up to an hour, to help feed the birds. This will include,putting up bird feeders, cleaning them, replacing seed and chatting about birds that have been using the feeders.
