Community

The Rotary motto is “Service Above Self”. Whitley Bay Rotary Club has always focussed on helping our local area through a wide variety of activities. We fund raise through cash collections, help local activities including the annual fireworks display on The Links and St Nicholas festival in the town centre. The club is keen to be at the heart of the town and to help both charitable good causes and groups or individuals seeking support for a project.

Fundraising

Members of the club are repeatedly involved in fundraising for a huge variety of diverse events. We organise regular cash collections, seek grants and willingly offer our time and energy to assist with numerous activities. One of our many proud achievements is to be part of the Rotary international programme to eradicate polio throughout the world.

Club History

Whitley Bay Rotary Club has been in existence since August 1923. We enjoy a proud history of friendship within the business world and social community supporting both with activities and fund raising events and over the years, the club has benefitted many thousands of people.
We meet on the first & third Tuesday each month at Whitley Bay Golf Club; we enjoy a broad social and active programme combined with opportunities for service both locally and further afield.
