@DarlRotary is devastated to learn of the death of past President Alan Charlton MBE and his companion Joy McCulloch MBE in a road accident near Scaling Dam at the weekend. He was a much loved and well respected Rotarian and will be sorely missed. A sad and shocking loss.

The numbers are impressive. The impact is even greater.
The 1,193 clubs that earned the 2025-26 Rotaract Giving Certificate contributed more than US$676,000 to The Rotary Foundation, up 33.5% from last year.
Thank you for turning generosity into action 💛
