Who we are

 

The Rotary Club of Wellington was established in 1921, the first Rotary club in New Zealand!

The foundation of our work is to provide service to build stronger, better functioning communities, in Wellington, New Zealand and in neighbouring countries.

With around 160 members, our membership comprises a wide range of people and professions, with an equally diverse range of backgrounds and personal interests.

They work in the top levels of small business and large enterprises, for the private and public sectors. Many are also members of professional and community boards and committees.
