250 Rotarians and their guests are celebrating the centenary of the granting of the Charter to the Rotary Club of Nottingham in 1918. We are the first club in District 1220 to reach this target and are delighted that the President of Rotary International (RI) Ian Riseley, Director Brian Stoyel, Rotary GB&I President Denis Spiller and our District Governor Michael Longdon are joining us, along with the Lord Mayor and Sheriff representing the City of Nottingham. We look forward to a great evening together. Our focus is on Polio Plus - we hope you have noticed the display of purple crocuses as you arrived and the purple crocus brooch for each guest. We even have on display an Iron Lung created by Roger Frank from the Rotary Club of Eden Valley to provide an insight as to the distressing nature of this condition which thankfully is no longer prevalent in this country and, thanks to the efforts of Rotary, all but eliminated worldwide. All our daughter clubs are represented here, together with most of our granddaughter clubs and about half of our great granddaughter clubs. We want this to be a celebration to remember!
