This year's RYLA courses take place at our purpose-built site alongside Hannahs Meadow and the Hury reservoir in August 2024, with one course starting on 12th August and the second on 19th August 2024. 40 young people will take part this year. We have added loads of new features to offer the best RYLA yet.
We hope to run the Technology Tournament next year, if resources permit, after taking time out because of COVID restrictions. We are always looking for volunteers to help us to run this very popoular event.
Please visit the pages below to find out more about Rotakids, Interact, Rotaract, Youth Competitions, RYLA, and Rotary Youth Exchange (STEP and Long-term programmes).
Speakers available:
I am available to speak face-to-face (or on Zoom) to Clubs or Club Groups about Youth Competitions and RYLA.
Jean and Keith Best are happy to do Zoom presentations on the Peace Project they have developed. Please let me know if you would like Jean and Keith to do a presentation at your club meeting.
