We are getting ready for a busy December and this year we will also be supporting the Priory Church Dunstable Tree Festival. Last year they had over 1000 people visit during the two days and they hope to increase this number this year.

Supporting the community is at the heart of everything we do here at Rotary and making a difference to the lives of our residents is important to us. We are only too pleased to be the event sponsor.

We welcome new members throughout the year, and if you’d like to learn more about what we do and how you too could get involved then please get in contact; visit our club meeting or see us at one of the many events over the coming weeks.

We put Service above Self!

🌱 Planting Hope: The Story Behind the Purple Crocus 💜
If you see our Rotary members and local volunteers out in the community digging and planting small bulbs this autumn, they’re preparing a very special spring surprise with a powerful story.
These are purple crocus bulbs, and they are the global symbol of Rotary’s fight to end polio forever.

Why purple?
During massive immunisation campaigns, children who receive the polio vaccine have their pinky finger dipped in purple dye. This simple "purple pinkie" mark makes sure no child is missed. It has become a badge of health, safety, and hope.
When these crocus bulbs bloom in the spring, their vibrant purple petals will serve as a beautiful reminder of our promise to eradicate this disease worldwide. Since 1985, Rotary and our partners have helped reduce polio cases by 99.9% globally—but the fight isn’t over until we reach zero.
This year, we have volunteers of all ages getting their hands dirty to plant thousands of "promise" bulbs. Together, we are planting a future free of polio.
Thank you to everyone who has already helped plant this year or plans to join us over the next couple of weekends to plant. Keep an eye out for the purple blooms come spring! 🌸✨



We hope the weather behaves and allows Dunstable to plant theirs tomorrow and Sunday.

It’s that time of year again when the bulb planting happens once again !

If you would like to help we have three opportunities this year - each session will have a maximum of 8 people due to their locations so please message the page if you are able to help. Thanks to the Central Bedfordshire Council Highways team for approving our location choices.

Thanks to Rotary Club of Dunstable and Liz Jones - Community for providing the bulbs this year.
