About us

 
 
Welcome to the Rotary Club of Borderlands (Passport Group)

We are a small club of about 20 members, chartered in 2023.  We represent a new style of Rotary across the South of Scotland, whose aim is to unite community driven people towards taking action to create lasting change across the globe, in our own communities, and in ourselves.

We meet in person once a month, usually on a Saturday morning, at different venues throughout the Scottish Borders, and have zoom meetings in between. 

If you are a visiting Rotarian, or just interested in what we are up to, please follow us on Facebook or use the contact button below and come and join us for a cuppa and a bacon roll!
