Youth Opportunities supported by the Rotary Club of Coventry Jubilee

The Rotary Club of Coventry Jubilee recognises the importance of encouraging young people to achieve their potential and have developed a range of events and competitions with this objective in mind.

The Rotary Club of Coventry Jubilee Youth Service recognises the positive change implemented by youth and young adults through leadership development activities such as RYLARotaract and Interact club service projects, and creating international understanding with Rotary Youth Exchange and NGSE while competitions give the opportunity for young people to develop and showcase their skills.
