Thanks to the Gosling for the raffle prize which we won the other Monday at Woking Rotary Clubs Fund Raiser. Woking District Rotary Club have also been donated the same brunch voucher for our Semi Centenary Celebrations which is taking place on Saturday 17th October at Chobham Golf Club. We are raising funds for Cut Out Cancer, the rotary charity connected to the new cancer centre at The Royal Surrey Hospital, Guildford.
Help us raise these funds by either attending our celebrations or if you can’t attend buy some raffle tickets. Top prize is a visit to Port Lymph, truck safari and afternoon tea. ❤️
Thanks to the staff at The Gosling for a lovely brunch this morning.

We enter teams into a series of inter-club games and sports competitions each year. In the last month alone we have fielded teams at skittles, lawn bowls, dominoes and darts. It’s a great way to get to meet lots of other Rotarians from around Surrey, Hampshire and Sussex.

In July we paid for a group of very young carers from Maybury Primary School to go to the seaside. They were aged 7-11 and all from disadvantaged households. For many of them it was their first time on a beach and paddling in the water. We had some fantastic feedback from the kids.

We entertained a bunch of Nigerian Rotarians back in June, and what a hoot we had. I doubt the corridors of have echoed to the sound of such enthusiastic community singing for many a year. Oh, and we inducted another new member too!

We’ve been a bit quiet on Facebook of late. Time to put that right!

We held our annual charity golf day at on 1st July in beautiful weather. A great day’s golf - including 🦌 sightings - was enjoyed, as well as the celebration dinner and auction afterwards. The event raised over £6,000 for local charities. Half has gone to to support its Woking branch.

Congratulations to the team from Seymours for winning by a clear margin.

It's happening! ✨

Last year, we launched a fundraiser to refresh our well-loved outdoor play area — and the response was incredible.

What started as a small project has grown into a full-blown renovation, transforming our outdoor space into something better than we ever could have imagined.

Our new space will feature trike-friendly flooring with a race track, creative wall art, learning tools like chalkboards and mirrors, imaginative play zones including a sand pit and mud kitchen, and a shaded area for quiet time. It's designed to support play, learning, creativity, and wellbeing.

This is all thanks to the incredible generosity of our funders 💙💚

So, a huge thank you to:
- Balfour Beatty
- Surrey County Council Wraparound Care
- The Morrisons Foundation
- Woking Lions
- Woking District Rotary
- Everyone who supported our 'An Inclusive Space for Play' appeal.

The project took a little longer to get started than expected, simply because it became a much bigger and more exciting renovation along the way, thanks to such generous donations. But work is now officially in motion, and we can't wait to share the journey with you.

It's going to be an incredible play space for children and young people with a learning disability and autism for many years to come.

Watch this space for updates as our new outdoor area takes shape!
