Youth & Community

Our Youth and Community committee provides a link between the Matlock Rotary Club and our activities in the local community.


Our Vocational Youth and Community Services Committee provides a focal point and coordinates activities involving the club and the local community.

Our current youth activities include:

  • Assistance to local sick children with a variety of life threating and terminal illnesses, providing items such as additional occupational therapy and such items as essential equipment for home and education.
  • Annually we award a Bursary to two students at Highfields School to assist in further education 
  • We are currently aiming to improve our links with and support to Highfields School in Matlock, to encourage entries to the Rotary Young Chef competition and Speaking Competitions.  Matlock club members provide support for mock interviews at the Schools Industry Day.
  • We aim to give more assistance to local charities and are always to happy welcome visitors and speakers at our meetings who are keen to inform us of local issues and needs.  

In the local community:

  • We have introduced a 'Community Grant' programme whereby good causes can apply to Matlock Rotary for a grant (usually up to £500).
  • We have developed links to and have provided ad-hoc support to the local Citizens Advice Bureau and have supplied necessary equipment. 
  • We have also provided ad-hoc financial assistance to the local branch of Help The Aged
