Start Your Journey
How Do I Get Involved?
…. The journey starts with members ~ people, like you, who want to make the world a better place. Through meetings, activities, projects and events our members come together to strengthen their connections with friends and neighbours and their willingness to improving the communities in which we live and work, both locally and internationally.
Who can join?
Rotary, Rotaract [young Rotary] and online eClubs around the world welcome people who seek to make a difference in thier community and want to make new friends and connections.
Becoming a member?
Our club might be of interest to you, but to help you find the club that suits, we’ll have an online chat to discover your interests together with explaining more about Rotary. We can then help to find a club near you that suits.
Start your Rotary journey
Involvement in Rotary is flexible, ranging from full membership to project volunteering.
Join an existing club
Join a club in your area and get involved with the exciting projects Rotary clubs organise every day. Clubs are flexible in their meeting times and locations, with multiple clubs often operating in a certain area, giving you options to suit you and your commitments. Lots of clubs operate with a mixture of faceto-face and online meetings, offering greater flexibility for those who are frequently on the go, or those who lead a particularly busy lifestyle, but still want to give back to the community.
While clubs meet at different times, in different places and in different ways, the thing they all have in common is the fact they come together for hands-on projects, volunteering and community activities to improve the lives of others.
Form your own Rotary group
Rotary builds from the ground up. So if you’ve got family, friends, colleagues or acquaintances to join you, why not start your own Rotary group? You can lead the way by facilitating new and vibrant volunteering opportunities in your area. Rotary has a dedicated team of volunteers to help you every step of the way and build the perfect Rotary experience for you.
Corporate membership
Perfect for business! If your organisation wants to work closely with your local Rotary club to get involved in the community, you can. Rotary is a great way to put your organisation’s Corporate Social Responsibility ideas into action.
Associate membership
Some clubs offer a ‘try before you buy’ style option, for a brief introductory period, known as associate membership. This gives you the opportunity to get involved with Rotary meetings and projects to decide whether it is right for you.
