District Environment

Rotary Clubs across the North West and the Isle of Man are active in promoting Environmental projects within their Communities.


Rotarians are encouraged to promote sustainability, and reduce their own carbon footprints.

Rotary Environmental Sustainability Policy

Our Rotary District (1285) won the National RotaryGBI Environmental Award in 2006 (seven Bolton clubs for The Rotary Way Footpath), and 2010 (Rochdale Rotary Club for Urban Farm Planters).

The video below was produced by Wigan Rotarian Stan Cooper, a former science advisor for Wigan, with help from staff and students at St John Rigby College.
