Member Testimonial

“I was attracted to Rotary’s international reputation and the twinning with the Dutch rotary club of Heerlen”

“My wife and I were very impressed with Rotary’s work in eradicating Polio and the fact that Bill Gates (Microsoft Founder) was prepared to donate millions of US dollars and put his trust in Rotary”

“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”

“The opportunity of putting something no matter how small back into the community that we live in and enjoy the company of like-minded people”

September saw a brilliant trip to visit our twinning town of Heerlen in the Netherlands, where we spent time with some truly fantastic hosts and enjoyed a wonderful weekend away. We also had some very interesting talks about Dementia and Fair Trade in Shaftesbury.

After July’s bumper activity month, August was more quiet due to the last bank holiday of the year. We had two fantastic talks from two very important local charities which include Step by Step and Father’s House. We also had our monthly business meeting where we discussed the South Dorset Cycle Ride and local Cheese Festival.

July is one of our most important months of the year as we have the ever popular Gold Hill Fair which was again, a roaring success. We also had a wonderful talk from charity Diverse Abilities and received a special contribution award towards the eradication of Polio.

Wow! June was an exceptionally busy month, with lots of fun days out! We had a wonderful visit to the RNLI College as well as our annual ‘Kids Out’ trip to Longleat. We spent a wonderful day at Compton Abbas Airfield and then ended the month with the Presidential Handover to our new President Guy Lowton.
