Rotary at a Glance

Rotary and You


Joining Rotary opens up a world of opportunity and endless possibilities to use your talents and skills to improve the lives of those in our community and across the world who need help and support whether through weather, war or hardship.


As an added bonus our online learning centre can enhance your work life skills and give you the confidence to go further than you ever imagined.


The friendships you make at home and abroad in Rotary will remain with you for life. Wherever you travel around the world you will be made welcome by like minded people.


Make a difference

 

ARE YOU READY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN YOUR COMMUNITY, OR IN COMMUNITIES AROUND THE WORLD?

 

We use our knowledge of local issues to identify areas of need, then apply our expertise and diverse perspectives to the problem. Our Rotary members are most likely at work in your community right now feeding the hungry, tutoring children, maintaining parks, and more. You can help.


Through our programs for emerging leaders, we’re also helping young people get the skills and experience they need to make a real difference in the lives of others. We offer both service clubs and programs to help students and young professionals strengthen their leadership skills, expand their world understanding, and make new friends. 

 

With clubs in nearly every country, Rotary’s positive impact on communities around the world has never been greater. If you share our passion for creating lasting change, contact us to learn how you can join.


Please contact Dave Willis at rotarydemon@gmail.com  to start your Rotary journey.
