What is Round Table? Read on...
Round Table can be best described as a "social club with a conscience" for men between the ages of 18 & 45. Round Table offers a mixed and varied range of social activities for it's members. Round Table nationally raises millions of pounds for thousands of good causes in the local community. Round Table has 696 Clubs throughout Great Britain and Ireland, as well as being part of a worldwide Movement.
Round Table started in 1927 and has been bringing
together fun, friends and fund-raising for more than 80 years now. It was the
vision of one man that started it all: Louis 'Mark' Marchesi who created the
organization for young men in Norwich. The idea grew quickly and in the UK today
Round Table now has 696 local clubs and a membership of over 8000. There are now
over 2700 clubs and almost 40000 members worldwide !
Guisborough & District Round Table was Chartered on 4th February 1959 and
in 1999 we celebrated our 40th anniversary with a commemorative charity dinner
with guest speaker Jack Charlton. Check out our list of Past Chairmen; I bet
there is someone there you know! Then in April 2009 we celebrated our 50th
Anniversary with a dinner at Gisborough Hall.
Would you like to change your perspective on life and make some new friends at the same time ? Do you want to travel, raise money for good causes and try out new sports or leisure activities? Would you like to get your partner and your family more involved with the local community ?
Why not take the plunge and throw yourself into Round Table today ?
This December we
brought Santa back(which unfortunately was cancelled in 2010 due to heavy snow) to selected streets of Guisborough
(11th December), Redcar (12th December) and Marske by the Sea (13th December).
As well as bring good tidings to many, your donations (door to door and street
collections) have raised a combined £1,243.36 which will all be going to good
causes over the coming months. Thank you for your support.
