Welcome to Rotary Scotland South

Also known as District 1320, Scotland South spans a broad area from Lochaber in the West Highlands down to Stranraer in Dumfries and Galloway on the West Coast, and across to North Berwick in East Lothian and Eyemouth in the Scottish Borders on the East Coast. It covers both Edinburgh and Glasgow. Within Scotland South, there are more than 90 clubs representing people from all walks of life, all denominations, all ethnicities and all orientations who are dedicated to aiding their communities across the region and the world - and having fun doing it!

Gone are the days when you had to have a particular type of job, or the time to attend a lunch meeting - nowadays Rotary is adapting. We have, for example, e-clubs, weekend coffee clubs, corporate membership and clubs who do not have a physical meeting at all as well as clubs who meet for a weekly meal - Rotary is open to anyone who can give a little of their time in whatever way suits them.

Millions of pounds have been donated to causes across Southern Scotland over the years, raised through an imaginative programme of events and fundraisers - social, community and business led.

We have high standards of operation, with inbuilt fairness and honesty, and aim to build goodwill and beneficial working partnerships and business networks. We have well established youth programmes and opportunities to get involved in initiatives all over the world.

Give us a call, drop us a line, come and see us. No obligation! If you've got what it takes and want to have fun giving back to your community, we need YOU in Rotary!
