Rotary District 1100 - in the West Country and Welsh Marches of the United Kingdom
Community and Vocational Projects
Committee Home Page
This is the home page of the District 1100 Community and Vocational section - the major source of information and help to Club's ComVoc Chairmen and other Rotarians with a specific interest in this important area of Rotary service.
There is little doubt that a club with a solid base in its local community will be a successful club. Our International and National organisations are making major efforts to increase membership. You have a better chance to work with and find potential new members for your club when you are getting involved in the grass roots of your local community. Community and vocational projects with their involvement with local businesses, schools, hospitals, local government etc. can be the seed corn for membership efforts.
One of the most successful clubs in the UK is Diss in Norfolk. They have 74 members with a local population of some 2500 people. If this ratio of recruitment was what we had overall in this District, we would more than double our membership!
Diss puts their success down mainly to being “involved in almost everything that happens on our patch” Makes you think?
