Avenues of Service

We channel our commitment to service  locally, nationally and internationally through Avenues of Service, which are the foundation of club activity.

 Come along and meet our members who have accepted the challenge to lead the Club's activities in their chosen area of responsibility. 

 

Rotary International's seven Areas of Focus (below) are carried out within the Avenues of Service portfolios, and often funded through the Rotary Foundation which was established over 100 years ago.
