Rotary in Great Britain and Ireland

Rotary International in Great Britain and Ireland is the association of Rotary clubs within England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. It has over 1,800 clubs consisting of more than 50,000 men and women from all walks of life.

The eRotary Club West of England is part of District 1100, which draws together 66 clubs spread throughout the region from Swindon to Hereford, including Bristol, Gloucester and Worcester. There are 21 districts spread across Great Britain and Ireland.

Rotary in a conventional sense is based in local communities where members meet on a regular basis to enjoy friendship, networking and to plan projects that will benefit the lives of others.

Clubs utilise the skills, expertise and dedication of their members to help improve the lives of people in communities both at home and abroad.

Rotary members unite at home and across the globe to put our experience and knowledge to work by tackling some of our most pressing challenges.


In Great Britain and Ireland, we focus efforts in six areas: promoting peace, preventing diseases, providing access to clean water and sanitation, enhancing maternal and child health, improving basic education and literacy, and helping communities develop.
