What could this idea change?

Visitors can understand what changed, who contributed, what remains uncertain and which project, service or partnership route fits their interest.

Could this work in our club?

  • Residents, supporters and partners seeking a coherent view of Rotary's current local service portfolio. Use when the purpose is to explain Rotary's own current portfolio rather than convene other organisations.

Before you start

  • Project selection, evidence sources, partner fact-checks and named story owners.
  • Specific image, quotation, personal-story, partner-mark and beneficiary permissions.
  • Venue plan, proof, wayfinding, access, presenter roster, fallback and budget approval.
  • Separate next actions for project, service, partnership, support, learning and membership where relevant.

At the end: Complete each project-specific promise, send partners the final authorised representation, remove or correct expired content, reconcile physical and digital assets and reuse only the approved controlled story modules.

Before your club says yes

Does the idea fit?

Talk with the people it is meant to serve and check that the need is real.

Who can say yes?

Name the person or group that can approve the work, spending and any safety arrangements.

Are people protected?

Check privacy, consent and safety. Collect only the information you genuinely need.

Can everyone take part?

Check the language, format, place, technology and cost for barriers.

Are the facts and permissions right?

Check names, claims, images, quotations, partner references and Rotary branding.

How will we learn?

Note where things stand now, check in at 30, 60 and 90 days, and decide what to do next.
