Handover to Andrew Rowdon

With the start of the New Rotary Year, we saw Bryan Boreham handing over to incoming president Andrew Rowdon at our meeting on 30 June. We also welcomed Dougie Pipe and Bruce Wiltshire as our incoming first and second vice presidents.


All change for the New Rotary Year

Bryan's motto for his 2021/22 presidency was “getting back to normal” and under his leadership we have come out of the pandemic stronger than ever. And with Andrew’s energy and ideas we are looking forward to another highly successful year. Below we see Dougie (right) and Bruce (left) who, in their role as vice presidents, will be supporting Andrew in his endevours.
