The Rotary Club of Lutterworth Wycliffe is one of two active clubs in Lutterworth and around 31,300 clubs worldwide in 166 countries and geographical regions. Rotary’s 1.25 million members worldwide share the common objectives of fostering high moral standards in business and the professions whilst, at the same time, initiating and supporting community service projects locally, nationally and internationally.
 
The Rotary Club of Lutterworth Wycliffe meets on Monday evenings (except Bank Holidays) at 19:30 for dinner at the Greyhound Coaching Inn, Market Street, Lutterworth, Leicestershire. Our parent club, The Rotary Club of Lutterworth, also meets at The Greyhound Inn, High Street, Lutterworth on Mondays for lunch at 12:30. Visitors are very welcome at both clubs, however, if possible, advance notification of your attendance would be appreciated so that meals can be arranged.

Rotary is also about fellowship. The regular weekly meetings held by the Rotary Club of Lutterworth Wycliffe provide an opportunity for members to enjoy each other’s company and to develop business and social relationships. Speakers are regularly invited to introduce a topic of interest for the members and lively discussions usually follow.

Within Rotary, we often speak of 'The Family of Rotary' and Lutterworth Wycliffe Rotary Club is strongly orientated towards the full integration of our families in our activities. There are regular events where partners and families may join in. Strong friendships and bonds develop between members and between families.

Associated closely with that of fellowship is the idea of service to the community. This takes several forms including fund raising and active participation in community projects. This may be something as simple as providing marshals for the town Feast Week. At other times, members provide helping hands in community projects such as creating a garden play area for recently orphaned children, altering a rear entrance door so that someone of limited mobility may regain access to their garden, taking disabled people shopping or for a fun day out, or raising much needed funds for a hospice caring for children with life-limiting illnesses. At an international level, thanks to the active and significant financial participation of Rotarians all over the world, the scourge of Polio has all but been eliminated by the World Health Organisation. Rotary, through local clubs such as Lutterworth Wcyliffe, is active worldwide in disaster, poverty and famine relief.

Generally, membership of Rotary is by invitation. However, men and women of any age, race and physical ability are welcome to attend our meetings (other than business meetings which are for Rotarians only). Our meetings and affiliations are non-sectarian and non-political. We are more than pleased to discuss membership with those who feel that they may have something to offer our community through membership or in conjunction with Rotary.
