What we do

The motto for Rotary the world over is “Service above Self” and to that end we support our communities in many ways…..

Christmas Sleigh Collection

We provide Santa and Sleigh for the annual Christmas Parade in Oswestry on the first Saturday in December. Then we collect money around the streets of Oswesty and surrounding villages up to Christmas eve. Money collected is distributed to local charities and organisations and other charities supported by Rotary.

Avalon Centre in Oswestry

We are helping the attendees of the Avalon Centre in Victoria Road in Oswestry by trimming back the overgrown hedges. We will be providing raised bedding areas from recycled wooden pallets so the wheel chair attendees can have the joy of growing their own vegetables from plant to plate.

Clearing gardens

We have cleared many gardens for local elderly and vulnerable residents where the garden has become out of control.

Oswestry Orthopaedic Hospital

We have adopted the car park islands, flower beds and roundabout out side the main entrance. We have also started a new service of collecting crutches and Zimmer Frames from patients that no longer need them. They are returned to the hospital where they are sterilised, refurbished and reissued saving the Trust up to £25,000 per year.

Rotary is an international organisation, the largest Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) in the world. The Rotary Foundation is our own charity, supported by voluntary contributions from Rotarians, friends and donations from the public who share its vision of a better world both at home and overseas. Funds raised are generally used to finance long term sustainable projects in the following six areas.

Promoting Peace

Fighting Disease

Provide Clean Water

Saving Mothers & Children

Supporting Education

Growing Local Economies

Rotary is especially dedicated to ending polio through the End Polio Now initiative and since 1979 its members have donated money, lobbied governments, provided practical support to deliver polio vaccines and volunteered at national immunisation days in all corners of the world. Thanks to Rotary and its partners, there are now just 3 polio-endemic countries (Afghanistan, Nigeria, Pakistan), the lowest in human history. Although Britain has not seen polio for many years, it is vital we continue our efforts to eliminate the disease worldwide so it can never return.

This is the effect of Polio on a young life…….
