Join us for a spellbinding Halloween-themed evening in the spooky Geoff Chapple Lounge. Expect tricks, treats, and tales from the world of football — plus a guest appearance from Woking Hospice mascot, Sam the Bear and friends, and a fireside-style conversation with a special guest from The Cards Trust.

There’ll be a Halloween-inspired dinner, a fundraising raffle supporting The Cards Trust Children’s Christmas Appeal and cancer charities, and plenty of good company to keep the ghosts at bay.

The money raised from the 2025 Swimathon will be shared between a number of local charities supported by Woking Rotary Club including, amongst others, Woking & Sam Beare Hospices and Woking Community First Responders.

The Woking Rotary Swimathon returns this October — ten hours, six lanes, and hundreds of swimmers diving in to raise money for local causes.

From school teams to local businesses, from groups of friends to solo swimmers, everyone’s welcome to take part — swimming in teams of six for an hour, side by side with others making a difference. Every length helps.

The Rotary President’s Dinner is a special occasion in the club calendar—an opportunity to reaffirm the values we share: service, friendship, and community spirit.

This year’s dinner will support two remarkable causes: Woking Community Hospital and the Sand Dam Project in Kenya.

Following a three-course meal, the evening takes a soulful turn with live music and dancing. Those who joined us at The Gosling earlier this year will remember the outstanding saxophonist, Joe, whose performance set the tone for a magical night. This time, Joe returns—joined by the equally superb vocalist, Pippa.

Expect a night of Motown, Northern Soul, Stax, and more—timeless classics from the golden era of 60s and 70s soul, all delivered with swing, style, and spirit.

Woking Rotary’s Race Night offers eight races with eight horses per race. Each race goer receives a race card on arrival. You’ll then have the opportunity to place bets on your chosen horses.

The races are projected onto a large screen with sound via a pa system.

Placing bets is simple and fast. Our compere for the evening, Benjamin Haskin, guides everyone through the process and operates the computerised tote betting system for us.
Bets are a minimum of £1 but you can bet more, and on more than one horse. The last race will be an auction race as well as normal betting. Do bring cash with you as bets cannot be taken using credit or debit cards – you’ll need plenty of 1£ coins.

When the racing’s done, winners collect their prize money — 50% of the total bets placed. The remaining 50% goes to charity.
