Corporate membership

The Hadleigh Castle Rotary Club invites you to consider a possible new opportunity for your organisation – Club Membership in the Rotary family. 

The Hadeligh Castle Rotary is a well established and respected club in the local community for regularly generating tens of thousands of pounds for local, national and international charities in addition to raising the profile of local charities and businesses and assisting them in other ways.

Our Corporate Membership is by invitation only. It gives local businesses, professional practices, non-profits, government entities, educational institutions & local organisations the chance to develop employees’ personal & professional skills through Rotary, to network with other businesses & to raise the organisation’s profile while giving back to the community.

With Corporate Membership, CEOs, management and other employees of the organisation often choose to add Rotary membership to their CVs, LinkedIn profiles and websites (if they wish) because they recognize Rotary’s reputation for combining business networking with community service speaks for their values as individuals.

Corporate Membership in Rotary provides employees invaluable opportunities for taking on leadership roles in Rotary’s local, national and international events while providing networking opportunities and mentoring. By offering the perk of Rotary membership, you show employees that your business cares about their personal and professional development.

Incidentally, Corporate Membership gives employees the chance to learn about the needs of their community so they can serve it well, while experiencing the personal satisfaction of knowing they’re helping others.

How Corporate Membership works:

An organistion is invited to Corporate Membership of a local club. On accepting, one person from the business/organisation enters Rotary as a full member with voting rights. Upto three others (alternative members) can be nominated to attend meetings and participate in discussions. They can attend any general meeting and visit any other Rotary Club worldwide. All other employees are welcome to join in and support the four above colleagues in events being run by Rotary.

Although the business entity isn’t a Rotary member, it typically pays the dues for its employees’ membership which are usually tax deductible and very affordable. Business entities are, however, able to display the Rotary roundel (logo) on letter headings and promotional material to indicate their involvement with the organisation through their employees.

Other Advantages of Corporate Membership

• Flexible schedule – Primary and alternative members can attend meetings together or individually. They have flexibility to engage in / participate in Rotary activities that fit in with their availability. 
  
• Community awareness and engagement – Members can meet, socialise, have fun and enjoy the friendship of other business people within the local club and numerous other Rotary Clubs, expanding their understanding of the community’s needs and wants, and getting an insight into how other businesses are addressing common concerns.
  
• Global connections - Members of Rotary have instant access to our global network of 1.2 million members in 35,000 clubs around the world. Wherever you’re travelling, there’s likely a Rotary club with local business and community leaders who will welcome you and give you an immediate network of local business and community leaders.
• Networking opportunities - Through Rotary, business leaders can make important contacts that can result in profitable business ventures and partnerships.
• Commitment to service - Employees of the business recognize and appreciate the company’s commitment to serving others. It helps in recruitment.
• One-stop source - Rotary is a productive use of an employee’s time. Instead of joining a variety of organisations, each with their own focus, time commitment & cost, we offer a comprehensive source where members can learn about many of the social issues and concerns in their community.
• Personal satisfaction - Members experience the gratification of knowing that they’re helping people who may not have the means to help themselves.
