Rotary Club of Helston

Hello, my name is Mick Timpson and I am proud to be a member of the Rotary Club of Helston and honoured to be President for a second straight term for 2008/9.

The purpose of this website is to inform you about our club and of course Rotary in general. Whether you are a visiting Rotarian, a club member or an inquisitive member of the public you are welcome to browse around to see who we are and what we do. Rotary is far from being a secret organisation and the pictures and profiles you’ll find within will help to show that we are real people, trying our hardest to do a bit of good, locally, nationally and internationally.

The fact you are reading this page suggests you are interested in learning more about Rotary and hopefully the Helston Club in particular. I joined Rotary in order to put something back into the community through Rotary’s tremendous charitable works, I hope that by browsing through our website you will get some idea of what being a Rotarian is all about.

Rotary has many thousands of Clubs throughout the world, if you become a Rotarian in Helston you will then be able to visit any other club anywhere in the world and wherever you go you will receive a warm welcome and the fellowship that only Rotary can provide. This is most noticeable with the friendly rapport we have with the members of our twinned club in France, the Rotary Club of Lannion, many of whom have become close family friends.

The Helston club meets most Thursdays at the Wheal Dream Restaurant on the Redruth Road out of Helston at 5:45 for 6:00.

Why not join us one evening and see what it’s all about. We welcome men and women of all ages, particularly those from the local community. Throughout the year we participate in many activities, generally with a charitable slant but also, sports, food and drink events, the theatre, general socialising - you name it we do it.

I would like to personally invite you along, so make a note in your diary, Thursdays at the Wheal Dream Restaurant at 5:45 for 6:00.

Yours in Rotary,
Mick Timpson
President, Rotary Club of Helston
