Our Club
The Rotary Club of Faversham was founded on the 15th October 1947 and is within District 1120 which includes the counties of Kent, East Sussex and part of South East London, England.
The club draws its members from the ancient market town of Faversham located on the North Kent coast in England, to the west of Canterbury and on the main route from London to Canterbury and the Channel ports to the Continent.
Our weekly meetings are held on Monday evenings at Faversham Golf Club, a few miles outside Faversham in the heart of the picturesque countryside of Kent, the 'Garden of England'.
