Rotary is a voluntary organisation and because of this the cost of distributing funds that are raised to needy causes are some of the lowest available. This is due to the huge network of clubs it has worldwide.

If you would like to donate money to any of the above charities or other Rotary charities please contact our Secretary, John Gowland on Bath (01225) 837450
