Folkestone Inner Wheel Club
About our Club
Our monthly meetings are held on the 1st Wednesday of the month at voco, The Clifton Hotel, Folkestone 6.15 for 6.45 except for the months of Nov, Dec, Feb and March when we hold a lunch time meeting 12.15 for 12.45. Please contact the Secretary if you would like to join us for one of our meetings.
The aim of the club is to enjoy the friendship of nearly thirty members through our monthly meetings, various outings and social events whilst raising money for local, national and international charities. We are again this year supporting a number of local charities.
Last year some of the local branches we supported were Age UK, Baby Basics, Foodstop, Pilgrims Hospice, Rainbow Centre
For International we support the District Rally and chosen charity, the Blythswood shoe boxes and any other international disasters that might occur during the year
We welcome any ladies wishing to find out more about our club and Inner Wheel.

01 July President's Handover held in Past President Ann's garden with six socially distanced members present.
All monthly general and dinner meetings with speakers have been postponed until Covid-19 restrictions allow such face-to-face meetings to go ahead, although socially distanced outdoor meetings of maximum six members are taking place whilst weather permits. With regret, other social events and district functions, plus the annual Association Conference have been cancelled until further notice. Club committee meetings are being held via Zoom.
