Hello and welcome..............

Members of Exe Valley Rotary Club (a registered charity) are real local people having fun but trying to do a bit of good in their local community. Might that be you? If you might be interested in finding out more about us , or Rotary in general, or even joining us at a (currently on-line) meeting as a guest, then just email me. You will be very welcome indeed.
With some fifty members we are one of the largest local Rotary clubs and are renowned for the fellowship and friendliness of our members. In recent years we have been able to raise significant monies for charitable and other worthy causes through our popular Uffculme Show and other events. Some of the beneficiaries of Exe Valley Rotary's work are listed here.
Cancelling events due to the pandemic has set back our resources and community work, including the popular planned Templeton Trail fun run (though plan its return in 2022). Plans were also very advanced for a May 2021 Uffculme Show but Covid meant this also had to change, and we now look forward to hosting the Uffculme Show and Country Fair at a new venue - Bridwell Park, Uffculme - on Sunday 5th September 2021. With the kind permission of the Bridwell Park team we plan an undercover craft arena as well as our normal offerings of a classic car display, dog show, trade stalls, live music, exhibitions and some brilliant entertainment for all the family.
While we have made donations to local charities and international appeals throughout the year, we presently seek your help in sponsoring the cost of planting 600 trees at Ashclyst Forest , and to raise money for our own and other charities.
Membership of Exe Valley Rotary is relevant to our local community, enjoyable and interesting. We are always keen to welcome prospective new members, so to find out more about Exe Valley Rotary, (or Rotary in general), or joining us at a (currently on-line) meeting as a guest, then just email us. You will be very welcome indeed.

Visiting Rotarians from around the world, are welcome to join Exe Valley's meetings, though advance notice to our President will be greatly appreciated.
Exe Valley Rotary - Events
Throughout the year we do so much in the community, from running a Gluhwein stall at Tiverton's street food festival, collecting for and donating to local charities, sponsoring the cost of school trips and Providing dictionaries to selected Primary age children and lots more. Exe Valley Rotary also lends and re-lends through a Kiva microfinancing scheme to assist individuals in in far flung places realise start up schemes which would probably be too small to otherwise attract investment .
And all done by people like you! Find out more about Rotary here .
