Rotary is a club, which aims to bring together business and professional leaders to provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace. We raise funds for local, national and international projects and charities.
The key aims of the Chamber are:
We exist to encourage friendship and companionship amongst retired Professional and Business men and are celebrating our 50th anniversary this year. We meet monthly at Bristol Golf Club for lunch followed by a speaker. We are not an organisation that exists to raise funds for charity, but we do voluntarily support a selected charity each year.
We also hold two or three ladies lunches a year at local restaurants. To find out more please phone or email our secretary Stan Rodliffe.

This group of retired professional and business men meets on the third Thursday of each month. Lunch is followed by a speaker. Twice in the year we are pleased to invite our ladies to attend. Visits to places of interest in the UK are part of our programme. Fund raising is incidental but regular. Contact secretary Dennis Underwood for more information.

If you want to network with inspirational and supportive business women, join us 10-12 on the 2nd Friday of every month. It is an informal set up and free of charge. Just grab a drink, introduce yourself and what you do to the group and afterwards there will be time to talk to people individually.
It's a very supportive and creative atmosphere and many ladies find advice, support and clients through their contacts in the group. Remember to bring your business cards/flyers.
