Get Involved
We have fun working together within teams on our various
projects. If Rotary sounds like the organisation for you and
you feel able to get involved or volunteer some of your
precious spare time, we’d like to hear from you! Simply email
our membership officer for an informal chat.
What is Rotary?
We are part of
Rotary International,
which comprises
more than 33,000
Rotary Clubs across
the world. There are
some 50,000
members in over
1,750 Clubs in Great
Britain and Ireland.
We share a common
vision for better
communities and
work together to
achieve it.
Rotary International
supports worldwide
programmes to
reduce poverty,
disease and
inadequate living
conditions. Rotary's
global initiative to
eradicate Polio has
been very successful
with only 2 countries
left where it is still
endemic.
We actively support
some very
worthwhile
overseas projects
but the majority of
our effort and fund
raising is
nonetheless devoted
to charitable causes
within our own local
community.
Who are we?
We are a group of
individuals from
many walks of life.
We normally meet
on Tuesday
evenings in
Berkhamsted for a
meal, usually with
an interesting after
dinner speaker; one
meeting each
month is devoted
to planning and
organising our
activities.
However we
recognise that time
is at a premium for
working people
with family and
work commitments
... so our members
ensure that family
and work come first
by attending
whatever meetings
work for them.
We work with local
schools to organise
challenging
competitions for
students and
provide days out
for the elderly and
for disadvantaged
young people. We
organise events to
raise money for
local and overseas
charities.
Your skills and
experience could be
invaluable in our
drive to help
communities at
home and around
the world. Whether
you become a
member of Rotary or
volunteer your time
and abilities to your
local club, you will be
helping to make
people’s lives better.
If you'd like to make
a contribution there
are many ways to
get involved with
Rotary:
you could join
Rotary and open
up a world of
opportunities.
you could donate
to one of our
Club's initiatives
you could
volunteer to speak
at our Club about
a cause which
interests you
if you are a school
pupil, you could
take part in a
Rotary
competition
you could
volunteer to help
the Club in one of
its initiatives,
without becoming
a Rotary member
