Four new members –the most ever at one time- have been welcomed into Havant Rotary The new faces are married couple Shelagh & Stuart Moore from Cowplain ,plus Vicki King and Nigel Tailyour both of whom live in Emsworth. All four bring a great deal of professional experience to the club particularly in the areas of IT, education, health, and fund-raising.
The club is actively seeking new members and part of this was the recent “Get To Know You†breakfast held at the Brookfield Hotel in Emsworth. This no obligation event was aimed at men and women of all ages who would enjoy the friendship of fellow members and very active social programme, whilst utilizing their business/ professional skills and experience to helping others. 14 guests took up the invitation with Shelagh, Stewart, Vicki and Nigel being the first to be inducted into full membership.
A second breakfast meeting and presentation will be held later this year.
The club now has over 50 members with several more candidates in the pipeline. Mike Sellis, Club President, says “We are delighted with our continuing success in attracting new members, in particular the increase in our lady members which now stands at eleven. With such a diverse range of knowledge and experience available we can offer not only financial but practical help to more local organisations, charities and good causes whilst also continuing the Rotary obligation to major international projects such as the alleviation of polio and the provision of clean water “.
