Rotary Community Story Campaign
Builds a community-authored series in which residents and partners define what matters, Rotary's role is proportionate and every story offers a grounded next step.
What could this idea change?
Different community voices enter the public record with consent and context, helping neighbours understand issues and recognise ways to support each other.
A simple way to start
- Choose community themes and recruit contributors through trusted groups beyond existing club contacts. Who could lead it: Community Editor
- Agree each contributor's story boundary, format, attribution and desired audience action. Who could lead it: Story Producer
- Verify facts and complete cultural, privacy, rights, defamation and accessibility review. Who could lead it: Editorial Assurance Lead
- Publish the series at a sustainable cadence and moderate public responses against clear rules. Who could lead it: Publishing Lead
- Return audience responses to contributors and preserve only assets approved for the archive. Who could lead it: Archive and Follow-Up Lead
What should we look for?
- Consented stories representing target communities
Before we say yes
- Does it fit a real local need?
- Can people take part safely and fairly?
- Are the facts, permissions and Rotary branding right?
- Who will lead it, and when will we review it?
