Service defines Rotary's character; whether local, national or international, it promotes Rotary's appeal and visibility in the community, and is one of the reasons that Rotary continues to grow.
Community Service responds to the needs of the local community and through our International Committee we support communities around the world. The Club determine top priorities for service projects by first learning about a community's needs and assesses them, they then seek to develop a response that addresses them.
Our current main local projects are:
Heartstart. CPR and defibrillator training.
xxxx
Defibrillators. The installation and maintenance of defibrillators.

Internet Safety for primary school pupils
Since 2017 we have worked in partnership with Police Scotland, the MOD Police and Argyll & Bute Council to present an Internet Safety programme to Primary School children in years 6 and 7. This has involved a presentation by our police partners to all the primary schools from Cardross to Tarbet and a Rotary Poster Competition for the children to demonstrate and communicate their understanding of the dangers associated with using the internet.
