There are over 50 Rotary Clubs and 24 Rotaract
clubs in Ukraine.
While we hope for peace and safety for all Ukrainians
we extend a special hope for the safety of all Rotarians,
Rotaractors and their families at this time.

member

Corrina
Rawlinson never planned on becoming a trailblazer.
The Esperance resident wanted to join Rotary
to help her community,
particularly with youth mental health.
But when she told the idea to her dad Scott Mackie,
who has a long association with the organisation,
he had some surprising news.
The Rotary Club of Esperance, which turns 60 this year,
had never had a female
member.
Last night we welcomed Agnes to our Rotary club.
We look forward to getting to know her and sharing our work
in the community with her.
Congratulations Agnes!

Ali, Aisha and Ali-Najib live in a displacement camp in Marib,
north-central Yemen.
They, and many other families we asked, told us,
“We can’t survive in nests.”
You see, people in Yemen use twigs, palm fronds
and shreds of clothes to create makeshift shelters that they call nests.
Ali collected scraps of metal, bits of materials and oil drums
to build a shelter for his family.
Other families have even less - they live under trees
, covering themselves with palm branches to create
a makeshift roof over their heads.
But it is not only living in improvised shelters that puts their lives at risk.
On top of the corona virus pandemic
, Yemen is in the grip of the worst cholera epidemic of modern times.
To add to this threat, the combination of a densely populated
campsite and lack of sanitation creates a breeding ground
for mosquitoes that can transmit malaria or dengue fever.

As Rotarians we share a
unique passion for taking action to improve
our communities
and the world.
Where others see
problems, we see solutions.
This is our
chance to show others how Rotarians see what’s possible
in their
communities and to highlight what we can achieve when more community leaders
join Rotary.
Roslyn Teirney will show you how our
People of Action
campaign will help you do this.
You can support Australian Rotary Health’s vision in
funding mental health research for our children.

Last week the club held our annual Emergency Services Personnel of the Year Award.
This award recognises the contribution of outstanding individuals
in our Emergency Services in the Community.
Thanks to all those who go above and beyond to make our community
a great, safe place to live.
This year our winner was Xavier Lucas from WAPOL,
his service to youth in the Goldfields through his boxing programme
on top of
his full time job is really making a difference to young lives.
Our Rotary International Theme for this year is Serve to Change Lives,
which we beleive all of our nominees,
and all of our
Emergency Serives Personnel do on a daily basis.
Thank you for your service.

photos from our annual Club Picnic on the South Perth foreshore.
This includes our farewell to Colin & Sandra Burns,
and presentation to Bella Gooding,
as the 2022 Awardee for the Des Killick Student Scholarship at Como SC.
A great evening had by all.
We have received a significant amount of positive
and supportive feedback
about the delivery of the very successful
Wanneroo
Christmas Day Lunch.
The sun certainly turned it on for us with a
sweltering 42 degrees 
so we were grateful for the indoor venue at Irene McCormack! Community
members were treated to a delicious Christmas lunch,
plenty of Christmas spirit & cheers
from the
team & our wonderful volunteers that made the event so special.
Of course we could not have managed such a feat
without the generosity of local businesses.
Here is our President Brian Butterworth presenting certificates
to Julie Otrembo
of Bunnings Mindarie in appreciation for donating the
Christmas decoration for the WCDL
& to
Coles Butler in appreciation for donating all the drinks and bottled water
for our 250 guests at the WCDL.
Thank you Bunnings & Coles for your generous
support. 
Alena Ng, is our NYSF candidate
. Alena, her mother Connie and teacher Brenda attended our club
to present the National Youth Science Forum experiences to the members.
A very compelling talk that indicates the length and breadth of the contacts
and activities had by the attendees
. Brenda also talked about the interact Club that is maturing
at the local Byford Secondary College.
It’s customary that all REQ events and projects end
with some Octopus Energy
Have a great weekend all!
Wednesday 23rd February is wear your Rotary shirt
day. Celebrate being a Rotarian.
The Rotary Club of Subiaco joined SubiAction, business owners,
managers and local residents for a walk and workshop last night
. Our aim was to brainstorm ideas on how we can bring life
and love back into Subiaco
. Some interesting projects were discussed.
Fantastic being around so many passionate
and motivated people who only have Subiaco’s future at heart.
Smart Roads - how can that be?! Elliott Panos from Main Roads WA
gave a fascinating and well-received talk on Smart Freeways
with reference to the monitoring and operating control work
done on Kwinana Freeway
to improve traffic flow.
This is judged to have been a great success.
Thank you
Elliott!
