Our Centenary
The Rotary Club of Belfast having held its first meeting on 24 July 1911 is proudly celebrating its centenary this year.
The Club has a remarkable history and as we celebrate our Centenary we do so with pride in the achievements of this great Club and we give thanks for the many Rotarians of vision and compassion who have devoted a part of their lives to the Rotary movement. We have served our community well both here and abroad and we have been true to our motto of “Service above Self”.
To mark this year the Club has organised a special programme of memorable events. Full details can be found here.
In addition the Club has produced some Centenary memorabilia:
