The Rotary Club of Dawlish Water

"To encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise"

Who We Help, Why We Help & the Difference It Makes

You may well have heard of Rotary – or been approached by a Rotarian at some fund-raising event – but rather wondered what it stands for. Local Rotary clubs represent lively minds, mostly people with backgrounds either in business, trade or a profession where a mix of skills is used to benefit local communities and support key overseas initiatives.

Rotary is at the heart of the community – helping both young and old - a worldwide organisation with some 1.2 million members in 200 countries. Devon and Cornwall have more than 80 clubs and include two clubs in Dawlish - Dawlish Water Rotary Club and Dawlish Rotary Club which meet weekly with a varied programme of events.

Main activities include supporting schools, the local community, Rotary’s worldwide campaign to eradicate polio, ShelterBox, clean water projects in Africa and the shoebox appeal for Moldova.

What We Do

We're not your traditional charity or support group in terms of offering help direct to individuals in need, however we do provide opportunities for people to get involved, make friends, find new interests and interact socially with other which could in turn help to reduce feelings of isolation as well as fundraising to support numerous local and Rotary charities.

The wide range of activities includes speaker evenings and fun sports such as boules, bowls, skittles, golf and sailing. There are also regular social events including special evenings for wives, husbands and partners.

The club  holds in-person meetings but is also getting together on Zoom at least once a month.  This is on Tuesdays at 6.30 pm.  We continue to hold speaker evenings when we often invite guest speakers from around the world!  

In addition to Zoom meetings, we have launched a ground-breaking weekly newsletter for members and others.

Volunteer

Dawlish Water is a very friendly club that welcomes new members - men and women - who feel they would like to 'put something back into the community.'

We like to have fun, combined with great fellowship and the satisfaction of helping others. 

Fundraising supports numerous local and Rotary charities - a twice-yearly pub quiz and an annual team swim form the backbone of this. Regular support is given to Shelterbox - the successful emergency aid charity - the Children's Hospice South West, Chestnut appeal, Hospiscare, Devon Air Ambulance as well as other worthy causes. 

In the community, the club provides support for local organisations, and has close links with local schools.
