Update on Westbourne Rotary during Corona Virus Crisis

We would like to re-assure all our members and business partners that the club is endeavouring to stay up to date on the advice on the Corona Virus outbreak from Rotary International and the Government to ensure we are being responsible and not putting anyone in danger, therefore, members should keep an eye on any updates over the coming weeks.

Our regular Thursday morning are being held using our zoom account so that we can still meet regularly to continue the work of the club whilst group face to face meetings are postponed until government restrictions are lifted.  Sadly with the closure of the Savoy Hotel after being our home for the 25 years of our club's life, when we return to face to face meetings, we will be moving to another venue which is yet to be confirmed.  

So, if you are not a member of Westbourne Rotary Club but would like to find out more about your Rotary club and what Westbourne Rotary is doing, then please get in touch with us at info@westbournerotary.org.uk and one of our members will contact you with further information.

In this time of uncertainty, with many members of our community and members of our club having to self-isolate, this is the perfect opportunity for Rotary to do what it does best – help the most vulnerable people in our community.

What is Rotary?

Rotary International is a global network of volunteers, whose primary goal is to help others.  It is the world’s largest service organisation and membership is open to everyone.

Each Rotary club operates independently to help those in need and clubs also participate in large-scale projects undertaken by Rotary International.  

Rotarians get involved in their club’s activities as much, or as little, as their time will allow.



Benefits of being a Rotarian

  • Be connected to your community
  • Join with others to address local needs
  • Interact with other professionals in your area
  • Assist with worldwide humanitarian aid
  • Make new friends and contacts through an international network of people
  • Develop leadership and organisation skills
  • Be part of a global network

Are you a potential Rotarian?

  • Is helping others  more important than your own self interest?
  • Do you enjoy informal networking and socialising with like-minded people?
  • Can you help those less fortunate than yourself at home and abroad?
  • Do you live in the Bournemouth, Poole or Christchurch area?
  • Do you empathise with the Rotary motto, "Service above self?"

If so, the Rotary Club of Westbourne is the place for you.  Why not come along to one of our breakfast meetings and find out for yourself?  Contact our club secretary at info@westbournerotary.org.uk to arrange a date to come to a meeting.  We look forward to meeting you soon.

But there's much more...

Our regular weekly club meetings, whether face to face or via zoom, mean that you have the opportunity to develop long-lasting friendships with other Rotarians.

Every Rotarian is able to attend any club meeting in the world, so there is always somewhere to go and new people to meet, wherever business or personal travel may take you.

With each member contributing their time and expertise, it is truly amazing what can be achieved to make a difference to someone, somewhere, somehow.  Being a Rotarian can be incredibly fulfilling.

Visit us

We are currently meeting weekly via zoom at 7.30am on a Thursday morning as mentioned above, and our club secretary will be able to advise you of the meeting room ID and password should you wish to join us to find out more about membership of Westbourne Rotary.  All you need to do is contact us......

It is incredible at the moment how many people are volunteering to help in their community - and if you are one of these people - why not consider joining a local Rotary club to carry on volunteering to help in the community after the lockdown restrictions of Covid19 are lifted.

If you are not a member of Westbourne Rotary Club but would like to find out more about our Rotary club and what Westbourne Rotary is doing, or just want to volunteer your help - then please get in touch with us at info@westbournerotary.org.uk and one of our members will contact you with further information.​

In this time of uncertainty, with many members of our community and members of our club having to self-isolate, this is the perfect opportunity for Rotary to do what it does best – help the most vulnerable people in our community.  What are you waiting for?
