Supporting the Environment

Focusing on preserving our beautiful locality and taking measures to manage climate change


With more emphasis on the environment that we live in, and specifically climate change, in more recent times Rotary International has added "supporting the environment" as a new area of focus. This gives us even more ways to bring about positive change and increase our impact.

Here at Swanage and Purbeck Rotary, we are looking at ways that we can help to protect our own local environment. We are increasing our education in this area through talks from groups such as 'Litter Free Purbeck', 'Sustainable Swanage' and the Dorset Council Recycling team and looking at how we might be able to work with local organisations and schools to support initiatives such as plastic-free, 'slam dunk the junk' and others.
