Brecon Rotary is a group of likeminded individuals whose aims and purpose are to support a wide range of local and international projects and organisations which help strengthen communities, and to give those in need opportunities which may not otherwise be available to them.

Brecon Rotary Club currently has over 30 members from a wide range of backgrounds, members that are dedicated selfless individuals who participate and engage in activities and projects to exemplify our club as a leader within our community and make a difference.

The club was founded in 1959 and continues to go from strength to strength. The club meets regularly throughout the year and attends local events and functions within the local community.

Members are required to pay annual fee of which portion is retained by the club and area office for administration costs and a proportion is used to support Purple4Polio activities suggested by Rotary in Great Britain and Ireland to raise funds and awareness for End Polio Now, Rotary’s global campaign to eradicate polio across the world.

We have a strong social element to our club which provides the opportunity to meet others and make new friends and expand your network and embrace new opportunities. All members have one thing in common to invest our time energy and resource is into serving our communities here are just a few examples of the things we do:

* Partnership working with organisations such as Credu – Powys and Powys County Councils Youth Service;

* Funding placements for young people to attend annual Rotary Youth Leadership Award (RYLA);

* Supporting emergency humanitarian aid through established organisations such as ShelterBox and Aquabox;

* Provide volunteers to support events such as Brecon County Show and Nicky Grist Stages Annual Rally.

* Providing financial support for local causes via the well-known Community Chest Scheme
