July is one of our most important months of the year as we have the ever popular Gold Hill Fair which was again, a roaring success. We also had a wonderful talk from charity Diverse Abilities and received a special contribution award towards the eradication of Polio.

Wow! June was an exceptionally busy month, with lots of fun days out! We had a wonderful visit to the RNLI College as well as our annual ‘Kids Out’ trip to Longleat. We spent a wonderful day at Compton Abbas Airfield and then ended the month with the Presidential Handover to our new President Guy Lowton.

Our charity cycle ride took over the majority of May and what a success it was! With over 400 participants we managed to raise an incredible £5,000 on what was indeed, a glorious day. This year, we added some extra entertainment including the Shaftesbury Town Band and also plenty of refreshments for spectators.

Another busy month of activities including a training course on how to use a defibrillator, which had a great turnout of around 40 people! We also had the ‘Youth Speaks’ competition hosted by Shaftesbury School and a wonderful evening with Dorset Mind Services for which we raise money for.

March was a fun month where we tried our hand at gambling with an evening at the races (many lost!) and had a hilarious talk from a jockey. We also had David King come and speak to us about the annual Rotary Dorset Cycle Ride which has been going for over 6 years.
