The Rotary Family

There is no such thing as a typical Rotary member, nor a typical club. Each one of our 1,850 Rotary clubs in Britain and Ireland has its own unique personality. Clubs meet on different days of the week, at different times of the day – morning, lunchtime and in the evenings – and are involved in a vast range of different projects and activities.

Our 53,000 members are men and women from all walks of life, of all ages from 18 upwards, with a host of different talents and professional skills.

Some joined Rotary for the social life, some for business networking opportunities, and others for the chance to give something back to their communities.

Yet the one thing they share is a common interest in friendship, making a difference and having a good time in the process. As well as serving their communities, clubs are communities in their own right – vibrant, focused and friendly ones.

Join Us

Our organisation relies fully on it’s members to invest their time and give back to our community. We are always looking for new members to join the team and get involved.

The Llanishen club has been in existence since 1978 and is now looking to  expand and bring in new ideas to further bolster the team and fundraising.

If you are a resident in North Cardiff and are keen to find out more or get involved then please get in touch with our team. We regularly meet once a week at Llanishen Golf Club and are a team of like minded individuals that want to see their community succeed.

We have multiple memberships available and are introducing a social membership for potential members to get involved to see if it is something they’d enjoy.

What have you got to lose? Get in contact today.
