Saffron Walden Rotary recently welcomed David Boreham as its president for 2025-2026. He follows local businessman Andrew Burton who was president in Saffron Walden Rotary’s centenary year. The club was founded in 1924 with local nurseryman Carl Engelman as its first president.
David is well known in Saffron Warden as he has lived and worked all his life in the town.
He said, “It is an honour to be president and I pledge to continue to support local good causes and those in need internationally. Rotary plan to ensure this coming year includes support for the local charities that have received funding from us previously while encouraging charities we haven’t yet worked with. The aim is to cement Rotary firmly in the community for the future”.
At a recent dinner past-president Andrew Burton handed over his chain of office to David Boreham. The president elect for 2026-2027 has yet to be nominated.
