Rotary Club of Sedgemoor

The Rotary Club of Sedgemoor was formed in 1987, and is named after the area in Somerset where the last battle on English soil took place on July 6, 1685. 

We will be hosting the District 1200 Conference in Cardiff in October 2008.   Full information about the event, and booking forms, can be found here

Details of our meetings can be found in the menu shown on the left, and visiting Rotarians are assured of a warm welcome.  Should you wish to attend please contact the Secretary.  Each meeting starts with a meal and is usually followed by a speaker.
Occasionally the Club will have an event which takes members away from their usual meeting place so please check the programme to ensure that there will be a meeting at The Walnut Tree when you intend to come along.  The Walnut Tree Hotel details are on the right and our Secretary Don Johnson, can be contacted on 01278 455 611

Also on the menu are details of the Club Officers, and events - past and future.

Non-Rotarians may like to take a look to see what we get up to besides our normal meetings.  You can take a look at the Photo Galleries as well.

We are always pleased to welcome anyone in the Sedgemoor area who is interested in finding out more about Rotary and would be pleased to invite you to one of our meetings where you can meet us and find out what we do. Rotary is not a 'secret society', but is just made up of groups of people who get together for fellowship and to help the local and world communities.

If you would like more information, please use the Contact Form link on the left menu and we will be in touch as soon as possible

Sedgemoor's Polio Plus Donations

2006-2007 : £3,250

Rotary International is the spearheading member of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative and is the largest private sector donor. It has contributed more than US$600 million to the polio eradication activities in 122 countries. In addition, tens of thousands of Rotarians have partnered with their national ministries of health, UNICEF, the World Health Organization, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and with health providers at the grassroots level in thousands of communities.

Rotary International announced a partnership with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation on 26 November that will inject a much needed US$200 million into the global effort to finally eradicate polio.

The Rotary Foundation received a $100 million Gates Foundation challenge grant, which Rotary will raise funds to match, dollar for dollar, over three years, and Sedgemoor Rotary is committed to taking its part in this continued fund-raising.
