World Polio Day

World Polio Day is Octobver 24th. The eradication of polio is one of Rotary's longest standing and most significant efforts. Along with our partners, we have helped immunize more than 2.5 billion children against polio in 122 countries. We have reduced polio cases by 99.9 percent worldwide and we won't stop until we end the disease for good.

The recent discovery of the polio virus in Gaza serves to underline that we can't stop until the disease is 100% eradicated.

Why purple for polio?

When a child receives their life-saving polio drops on mass polio immunisation days, their little finger is painted with a purple dye so it is clear they have received their polio vaccine. Clubs across our district will be lighting up local landmarks in purple to mark the day and draw attention to the campaign.

The third District 1320 magazine is now available, highlighting what's going on in our new District and the amazing work our clubs are doing. There is also an archive of older ones you can look back on under the What We Do option above..

Happy Birthday Rotary Scotland South!

On June 29th we celebrated the first birthday of our new District 1320, Scotland South. A delicious meal at the Alona Hotel, in the grounds of Strathclyde Park was followed by an amazing performance by Charlie Boax, the overall winner of the Rotary Great Britain & Ireland Young Musician competition. Not only that, she also won it last year, a unique double, so you can imagine the standard of performance we enjoyed. Not only that, it was her 18th birthday, so a double birthday celebration!

A look back on the year was followed by the introduction of our new DG Daibhidh Wallace and his team. You can see who's who under "More" and "The District Team" above.

We wish the new team continued success as we move into our second year.

Where we are

When we say an enlarged District, we mean it. District 1320 is known geographically as Scotland South, a name which belies the vast area its 90-odd clubs cover.

 

Nevertheless we aim to ensure that Rotary is recognised across the area for what it does in local communities and further afield.
