Club President – 2026 - Debbie McLatch
Debbie McLatch has been a proud member of Basingstoke Deane Rotary since 2017, bringing her trademark warmth, humour, and kindness to club life. Over the years she has championed fellowship, supported community causes, and thrown herself into Rotary service with both heart and energy.
Away from Rotary, Debbie is a senior local government leader, consultant, and business mentor, and what truly defines her is her commitment to people — encouraging others, lifting spirits, and creating spaces where everyone feels welcome.
As President, Debbie hopes to lead with kindness and grace, and a deep belief in what Rotary does best: bringing people together to make a difference.
