Mike said on taking over the Presidency in July '23

It is a huge privilege to be able to serve Frome Rotary as their President this year. As the club gets ever closer to its Centenary, and following the challenges of the pandemic, the necessity of continuing to be innovative and serving the community of Frome, as well as attracting new members is going to be my focus this year. But most of all I want it to be a fun year for all of our members.
