What is Rotary and why should I be interested?


The rewards you will receive from belonging to Rotary are varied and vast:

  • Rotary members have a lot of fun! - Every club arranges parties and activities and gives members the chance to forge new friendships with like-minded people who share common goals. By joining Rotary, you become a member of a vast international family of 1.2 million members worldwide. You will be welcome - even encouraged - to attend any of the 33,000 clubs in more than 200 countries and geographical regions. This bond creates an instant sense of belonging, wherever you are in the world.
     
  • Giving back to the community - Joining Rotary gives you the chance to make a difference. It might be fundraising for a local charity, volunteering at an event, working with young people or building a school in Africa. The list of opportunities is endless.
     
  • Business networking - Rotary consists of a cross-section from every business community and its members come from all walks of life, so facilitating networking opportunities. Being involved with Rotary and getting involved in your community will inevitable enhance your and your company's standing with your customers.
     
  • Personal growth and development - Being a member of Rotary could help you develop leadership, public speaking, social and vocational skills as well as improve your cultural awareness. Businesses often encourage their staff to become involved with Rotary to capitalise on these opportunities and notice a marked improvement in skills such as event management, organisation, time management, teamwork and leadership.
     
  • Fun, fun fun! No apology for repeating this as it's so important, so prepare yourself!
