Welcome to the website of the
Ely-Hereward Rotary Club
Ely's evening Rotary Club
Our Club was formed in 2004 by a small group of people who were looking at ways of putting something back into the local community, and at the same time having fun and enjoying the company of like minded people.
We pride ourselves in that our members come from all walks of life – both male and female – and meet weekly at the Lamb Hotel in Ely for a wide variety of social activities, details of which can be found on our Social Calendar
We are now into our eighth year - and since starting our Club, membership has grown considerably despite the pressures we all face with our working day and family lives. You may be surprised to learn that our membership is split 50:50 men and women
Our Club's style is informal, flexible and progressive -which we believe helps broaden the appeal of Rotary and encourages people to consider becoming Rotarians where they might not have done so before
If the idea of helping others worse off than ourselves, and making new and lasting friendships through membership of Rotary and our Club in particular, then please contact our membership Secretary Frank Connolly, who will be please to provide further details
Since 2004 our Club has raised over £30,000 for local, national, international charities and good causes, which we think is a great achievement.
Local Charities: Care Network, Age Concern, STRADA, EACH, REBOOT,MENTFOR
National Charities: British Legion, Marie Curie, Bowel Cancer UK, Diabetes UK, Help for Heroes, DEBRA, GOSH, NSPCC,Teenage Cancer Trust
International appeals: We have sent a number of Shelterboxes to disaster areas throughout the World. We also collected over £8000 in the City of Ely for the Tsunami disaster appeal, and recently the Haiti and Japanese Earthquake disasters, which regretably has claimed so many lives.
