Our club comprises thirty or so men and women who come together in friendship with the objective of benefiting our community both locally and further afield.

We are centred on the historic market town of Kimbolton in the old county of Huntingdonshire.
Kimbolton Castle Rotary Club’s charitable trust, a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO), is the primary organiser of Kimbolton Country Fayre and Classic Car Show, which annually raises over £20,000 for causes and charities. See some of the causes we have recently supported >>>>

We meet on Thursday evenings at three alternative venues, all of which serve excellent food in comfortable surroundings: The White Hart in Great Staughton, The Snooty Tavern in Great Staughton and Grafham Water Sailing Club in Perry.
In addition to our fundraising activities Kimbolton Castle Rotary Club has a vibrant social life. A highlight of the Rotary year is our Charter Night Dinner, effectively the club’s ‘birthday party’. This picture show our Rotarians gathered for our 2023 Charter Night held at Grafham Water Sailing Club.
Our 2024 Charter Night was held in the magnificent state rooms of our spiritual home, Kimbolton Castle. Here, Maestro Mark on the left is giving our KCRC team directions for a lively and rousing percussion display!
The charter night is a rare opportunity to wear black tie or posh frocks. Otherwise our Rotary dress code is distinctly casual.
We place high value on our environmental credentials, including taking a lead on End Plastc Soup. See this interesting article: End Plastic Soup
