Rotary brings together a global network of volunteer leaders who dedicate their time and talent to tackle the world’s most pressing humanitarian challenges.  Rotary connects 1.2 million members from more than 200 countries and geographical areas.  Their work impacts lives at both the local and international levels, from helping families in need in their own communities to working toward a polio free world.

 

The Rotary Club of Abertillery and Blaina was formed over 75 years ago.  Our Club is a caring group of people, and we are enthusiastic, fun loving and active volunteers, who have raised thousands of pounds for charity both locally, nationally and internationally.

 

If you would you like the satisfaction of contributing to your local community, would like to make new friends, have any ideas for helping people in the local community and surrounding areas, or you are interested in professional networking, then why not contact the Rotary Club of Abertillery and Blaina today. Together we can achieve anything.

 

You may have your own preconceived ideas about Rotary, but we can tell you that the Rotary Club of Abertillery and Blaina:

  • is not just for old people!

  • doesn't expect you to attend every week

  • is not a men's club!

  • is a club which treats everyone fairly and equally

The towns of Abertillery and Blaina are nestled within the beautiful Ebbw Fach valley.  They are easily accessed from the A465 Heads of the Valleys road in the north and the A467 and A472 in the south. The area is surrounded by beautiful scenery and dramatic views across the hills and beyond.  

 

There are a number of key tourist

attractions in the area, including

the Guardian, situated near our

meeting place in Six Bells.  

The Guardian commemorates the 

50th anniversary of the 1960 mining

disaster in Six Bells.  It stands 20 metres

high and towers over the site of the former colliery where the tragedy occurred.
