Youth Service
District 1180 - Opportunities for Young People
Youth Service offers so many opportunities for young people. From Rotary GB&I youth competitions such as Young Chef, Young Photographer, and Youth Speaks, to recognising outstanding work in the community through the Rotary GB&I Young Citizens Awards which are presented at the Rotary GB&I Conference each year and broadcast live on the BBC News Channel.
There is also an opportunity to work in teams and challenge the mind whilst developing skills in technology with the Technology Tournaments or to study and visit overseas with Rotary Youth Exchange as well as develop leadership skills with Rotary Youth Leadership Awards.
The aim is to help young people discover and develop their own personal skills, grow their self-esteem and enjoy themselves in the process.
Whether it is RotaKids, Interact or taking on the challenge of Rotary GB&I Young Writer there is something for everyone to participate in.
We are always looking to introduce new Youth related activities and competitions. Young Environmentalist, Young Filmaker and Young Artist were intrioduced 2019/20 and Young Scientist will be introduced 2020/21.
Clubs and Districts all play a vital role in reaching out to youngsters so make use of your District youth officers, get involved with your schools and youth groups and share your stories of success with the resource group.
