Rotary
Rotary International is a global network of service volunteers. It is the world's
largest service organisation for business and professional people, with some
1,180,000 members operating in 166 countries world-wide.
There are 58,000 Rotarians in Great Britain and Ireland in 1,845 clubs, helping
those in need and working towards world understanding and peace. It's a fulfilling
role, and Rotarians can get involved as much or as little as their time will
allow.
But there is much more. Clubs meet on a regular basis, which allows members
to build firm friendships. Rotarians can attend any Club meeting anywhere in
the world, so there is always somewhere to go, and people to meet, wherever
business or leisure travel may take you.

Rotaract
Rotaract is an international program for adults aged 18 to 30 who want to make
a difference. It was founded in 1968 by Rotary International.
Today there are more than 7,300 Rotaract clubs with some 170,000 members
known as Rotaractors in over 150 countries.
Clubs are either based in the community or in a university. Rotaract clubs enable
Rotaractors to grow personally and professionally, address community needs,
and promote international understanding through friendship and service.
Rotaract clubs hold meetings, usually every two weeks, which feature speakers,
discussions, and visits to other clubs. Rotaractors also get together for service
projects, social activities, and leadership workshops. Beyond the club level,
Rotaractors can take advantage of district conferences, projects, and training
seminars and participate in an international meeting prior to the annual Rotary
International Convention.
