Sat, Sep 21st 2019 at 9:00 am - 1:00 pm

This short seminar is suitable for all Rotarians, particularly new or relatively new members. It will help attendees understand the wider world of Rotary.


The seminar will start with coffee at 9am at the Sysop Offices, Byrom House, Green Lane, Heywood, Lancashire OL12 2DY.

  • Visiting other clubs nationally and internationally
  • The Rotary Foundation – our charity
  • Opportunities to travel on Rotary service
