ORDINARY PEOPLE DOING EXTRAORDINARY THINGS
Welcome to the website of Rotary International District 1080 which comprises some 2,450 men and women in 77 Rotary Clubs spanning the counties of Norfolk, Suffolk, a large part of Cambridgeshire and small parts of Essex and Hertfordshire.
We are part of an International Humanitarian Organisation working to make the World and our Community a better place.

If you are not a Rotarian we invite you to explore our pages. You will find lots of information about Rotary on the national website and for information about a club near you then click on the ‘CLUB LIST’ menu button at the top of this page or the map to locate a club. If Rotary appeals to you then please feel free to contact any of the clubs in your area; they will be pleased to hear from you.

HISTORY OF ROTARY
In 1933 Paul Harris gave a speech at the 24th annual Rotary International Convention. It was aired on radio around the world. There was no video of this event, so by courtesy of Don Kemplen of the Rotary Club of Modesto East, California USA.here is an animation of Paul giving the speech in a visual context. Thanks to rotaryfirst100.org for the audio portion.
