“I am a member of Shaftesbury Rotary for fun and friendship while at the same time feeling I am doing something worthwhile for our community.”

“My family business moved from London to Shaftesbury and Rotary was the ideal connection to enable my wife and me to become part of the community.”

“I did like the openness of how Rotary works, nothing secretive, and the information was clear and positive with no hidden surprises.”

“The rotary club provides a unique and fun way to do good for your local community and also raises money for major charities.”

“I particularly warmed to the understanding that Rotarians recognised the priority of family, business and then Rotary in that order”

“This was a unique opportunity in a small town to join a worldwide club and enjoy the company of Rotarians from so many different backgrounds”
