Rotarians embrace the Rotary International theme of Service above Self and are active in projects in their local communities and worldwide.  Our District Team supports them to do just that.

         Rotary International Vision Statement


Our 2023/24 Rotary International President Gordon MacInally's theme for his year of office is Create Hope in The World.  He has said:

 "My vision is that Rotary should exist everywhere in a style to suit everyone who has the desire to be part of us and to help us do good in the world,".

Rotary is a membership organisation and we welcome anyone to join us.  With a range of clubs in our District, there one to suit most people within easy travelling distance of where they live or online.  Go to the club's websites to give you a flavour of what they offer -  contacting them is easy and without obligation.   If you need help finding a suitable club please contact our Membership Lead on the Contact Us page, who will be happy to help you.  

Rotarians help others.  They save lives, change lives and give hope.


Reasons to join Rotary:

  1. Make lifelong friends.  We have 1.4 million members in 46,000 clubs across the globe in over 200 countries!  
  2. Make a difference.  Our projects save lives, change lives and give hope. 
  3. Professional Development.  Networks are important and we have wide networks available to members.  We have training and support available to members too.
  4. Community Development.  We have the opportunity to make a real difference in our communities near and far.
