I don't know of any existing KiCad footprint collections out there.

I've made my own footprint for the 1 pole 12 pos SR25 switches using the 
footprint editor new footprint "footprint wizard" and selecting the 
"circular array" option for a start.

Consult the SR16 datasheet to get the exact PCB radius, pad/hole 
diameters, etc.
