District Assembly at Lancaster University


thinkdifferently

Rotary in Cumbria and Lancashire has been on a journey since this topic was introduced at District Assembly last year.

Responding to the many requests from clubs the District Team has, instead of a traditional assembly, designed an event to focus on supporting clubs with innovative ideas.

Every club needs to plan for the future as communities both here and internationally need us. More members mean we can meet ever growing need and in doing so they too can enjoy all Rotary has to offer in terms of fun, friendship and fellowship.

Outline programme

9.00 – 9.30 registration

9.30 – 12.30 – stimulating speakers and ideas

12.30 – 1.15 buffet lunch

1.15 – 3.00 - choice of ‘experiences’ in smaller groups

3.00 – 3.30 – wrap up

We expect this to be a popular event, so we are asking you to book and to pay for lunch in advance.
