The members of Exe Valley Rotary, a registered charity, consist of a group of local people who enjoy fun and fellowship but try 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 the Rotary organisation in general, or even joining us at a meeting as a guest, then just email me at evr.president@yahoo.com . You will be very welcome indeed.
With around 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 set back our resources and community work, however, easing of restrictions allowed us to run the Uffculme Show and Country Fayre at a new, much larger venue- now on Sunday 5th September 2021. With the kind permission of the Bridwell Park team we held an expanded offering of a classic car display, dog show, trade stalls, live music, exhibitions and some brilliant entertainment for all the family with a fantastic turnout. To all those who supported the show, either as traders exhibitors or visitors, a big thank you! We hope to see you again next year.
Our continuing project is to seek your help sponsoring the cost of planting 600 trees at Ashclyst Forest. Can you spare £10 to help?
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 meeting as a guest, then just email us. You will always be welcome.
Yours in Rotary Fellowship

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 .
