It is said that every minute of every day Rotary will touch the lives of millions somewhere in the world. By combining their skills and resources, members of Rotary are able to make a real contribution to the lives of others.
In Guernsey alone, our club raises tens of thousands of pounds for community projects and local charities. Members also volunteer their time supervising and running community projects and events, such as the Saffery Rotary Walk, Christmas parcels for the needy and the Tree of Joy, providing Christmas presents for children who might not otherwise receive a gift at Christmas. Several projects are aimed at promoting the achievements of young people, such as the Young Chef competition and the Rotary Young Leaders Award (RYLA).
The Rotary Club of Guernsey is very much about fun & fellowship with both male and female members covering a wide range of professions. The various projects and annual events provide service to the local community, internationally and wider support to Rotary International initiatives world wide, such as the eradication of polio.
We are a successful growing Club and in the last year we have had 6 new members join us and there are now 75 active members.
We meet for lunch every Wednesday and have speakers at every other meeting except for our monthly business and club service meeting. This is a great opportunity to catch up with friends, visitors and guests who are always made most welcome by the membership. The lunches are well attended, the view from the hotel is to die for and the atmosphere and conversation really make this a weekly event to look forward too.
Both guests and visiting Rotarians are very welcome and we would encourage you to come along and meet with our club. For further information relating to lunch start times etc. please see 'Where and when'.
