Neville’s exposure to Rotary beyond his club has provided him with a broader understanding of the humanitarian service work being carried out by Rotary throughout the local communities and the wider world, and how District resources can be utilised to support that work. He believes that being invited to be a Rotarian is an honour, and the opportunity to serve others is a privilege, and that when we are asked to help, we do what we can to provide that help, either directly or through our network of contacts.
