Ways and means Committe is charged with the responsibility of raising funds for our various projects and support programmes. This is generally accomplished by using the skills and contacts within Rotary to organise enjoyable community events for Rotarians and their guests and making a small charge. For example garden parties using the more substantial gardens of our members. Money is also raised at major concerts and variety shows set up with our skilled musical directors and also at an international golf competition centred round play on the Old course. These are great and enjoyable social events and they raise money in a very rewarding way. Rotarians earn the money through service and enjoy themselves in the process.
