Weston-super-Mare Rotary Club has been organising monthly Reengage teas for over fifteen years. Ove 75s who live on their own and don't get out much are driven to and from Rotarian's and supporter's homes for a two hour gathering with tea on a Sunday. We take our guests to properties in the town and surrounding villages such as Burnham-on;Sea, Lympsham, Brent Knoll, Sidcot and Winscombe.
At present we have seven ladies but we have hosted several men in the past. You only have to witness one of our gatherings to realise how much pleasure they get out of the trips.

Weston Rotary notched up another first last week. On Monday, our Secretary received a ‘rather spontaneous’ email from a former President of the Rotary Club Basel International, who would be arriving in Somerset that evening and, after unsuccessfully trying various avenues to find some golfing company for the week, thought he’d try the Rotary network before resigning himself to three days of solitary golf.

Whilst several of our golfing members were unavailable, Stewart and Ken L answered the call, playing an enjoyable round with our new Swiss friend, Simon, at Weston Golf Club on Friday morning. This was prior to our lunchtime meeting, which he had been invited to attend, as our guest.

Reflecting on his experience of our two Clubs, Simon suggested the main differences appeared to be the age of both the Clubs and the fact that Basel International meet on line, due to the fact that their club benefits from a transient population. Simon was also impressed that his request for golfing partners was fulfilled within three hours of contact having been made, promising to reciprocate in kind.

Joint President David was on hand to present a banner, together with a copy of our 100th Anniversary Booklet, in return receiving boxes of Swiss Chocolates, which were happily shared amongst those present.

Yesterday we were delighted to welcome Paul Hobbs, who joined us to talk about his upcoming half marathon charity walk in aid of Bile Duct Cancer Research.

Remarkably, this will be the 32nd annual charity event organised by Paul. Over the years, his incredible fundraising efforts have raised more than £1 million for a wide range of charities – a fantastic achievement and a real demonstration of his commitment to helping others.

Paul will be taking on his latest challenge at Weston Marine Lake on Thursday 20th August, starting at 11am.

If you’re in the area, why not pop along, say hello and give Paul some encouragement as he completes his half marathon? We know he’d be delighted to see you!

Rotary Weston-super-Mare is very pleased to support Paul’s efforts with a donation towards his fundraising for Bile Duct Cancer Research. Bile Duct Cancer Support

Good luck, Paul – we’ll be cheering you on! 👏🚶‍♂️💙
