Competitions:

From local and regional heats through to national levels, these competitions are a great way to be challenged in a fun and friendly environment, plus there are prizes up for grabs too. (Applicants ages are taken as of 31 August 2022).   

All of these competitions have the full support of Rotary in your area and the District Youth Service Team will support you through your progression in the various stages. If you want to take part, please fill out our enquiry form and we will point you in the right direction. 

The Team are looking for volunteers to organise Young Artist, Young Environmentalist and give information on Rotakids this year, as well as a volunteer to work alongside the Young Photographer organiser this year to take over next year. With some interest in the topic these jobs are not onorous.
