Unique raffle opportunity
A chance to win a unique sculpture featuring a bronze hippo and silver oxpecker bird by acclaimed artist Mark Stoddart.
Mark is known for his similar sculptures, but has created and donated this one-off piece, worth £45,000, in support of neurodiverse charities and The Rotary Foundation, given RI President Gordon's focus on mental health this year. Gordon explains below.

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.
