    Rotaract Logo

    Rotaract is an organisation for 18-30 year olds with clubs throughout the world. It enables members to meet people, try new activities, and make a difference in their local community.

    Rotaract West Berkshire, covering Newbury, Hungerford, Theale & Thatcham, is an ideal opportunity for anyone aged 18-30 living in and around West Berkshire to make new friends, do something different, meet new people and generally have lots of fun!

    We regularly meet the first and third Monday of every month. Our current venue for the first Monday of the month is:

    The Hogs Head (Function Room),
    1-3 Wharf Street, Newbury, RG14 5AN

    Time: 8.15pm for 8.30pm

    The third Monday is very informal and we try to do a different activity each time – it may be dinner, cinema, bowling, a quiz or drinks, so be sure to contact us in advance to find out where we’ll be!

    We are always looking for new members and interested community groups or local charities.

  • Social Meetings – Important

    Branch, Social 26.11.2007 No Comments

    As a branch we have decided to change the way we manage social meetings, so as of now there will no longer be any monthly meetings.

    The new way of organising social meetings from now on is to contact the committee and arrange something specific, as a branch we can then publish the details to offer everyone a chance to join in.

    You can contact the committee through this website of the OUSA Newbury first class forums.

    The reason for this change is that most monthly meetings have had such a low turnout that at best, there were only the committe, and at worst one of the committee was on their own. So im sure you can understand why we have chosen to take the decision we have.

    Just a quick note to say that we were able to appoint a new secretary, so we still have active branch.

  • Walk (27th October)

    We will be going for a short walk on 27th October.

    The plan is to meet at the Crown pub in Kingsclere at 11am for a short 5 mile walk. We will be guided by Rachel and for those interested a pub meal afterwards.

    Come along to the quiz evening at the Pineapple in Tadley on the 25th of November. The quiz starts at 19:30, I expect some of us might be there earlier (not that were drunkards or anything).

  • AGM followed by Pizza

    Branch, Social 06.10.2007 No Comments

    The next meeting is our AGM which means the 7th of November AGM/Social/Pizza evening will look something like the following.

    • 19:30 Social meeting starts
    • 20:00 AGM starts
    • 20:30 We go for a Pizza

    We need a Secretary (our current one is moving on…)
    Our secretary is leaving so we need a volunteer to become our new Secretary, or I need to stand down as Chair and become Secretary so that some one can be the new Chair.

    Chair and Secretary positions require very little effort.

    Why do we need a Secretary (and a Chair)?

    The OUSA constitution requires both officers, please see below.

    “The Branch will be deemed to have closed if it does not have at least two Officers in post. All funds held by the Branch will be recalled and held centrally pending the Branch being reactivated. ” (Point xi of “d. committee” under section “5. Branches”)
