Rotary club committee structure
   
The overall management of the club is through it's 'Executive' committee, the Club Council, with the five operational Service committees given responsibility for activities in their designated areas.

Club Council
Club Council normally meet bi-monthly, under the chairmanship of the club President, and comprises the Secretary, Assistant Secretary, Treasurer, Immediate Past President, Senior Vice President (President-elect), Junior Vice President (President Nominee), four Service committee chairmen plus two elected members. Council discuss and lead the strategic affairs, making their recommendation on major issues to the full membership, involving everyone in decision making.

Service committees
The regular activities and service responsibilities are delegated to five Service committees. The chairmanship and committee members changes annually, with the aim of utilising the skills, talents and vocational experience of all members, sharing the work loads and responsibilities, as well as encouraging fresh ideas and approaches.

Club Service (Chaired by Senior Vice President) - to manage membership development and retention, communication amongst members and with District and other clubs, the club programme of speakers, sporting events and visits, and Rotaract development.

Community and Vocational Service - to identify areas of need, either directly or through local charitable organisations, within the community and provide the appropriate service work or financial assistance. Emphasis is given to the 'Ideals of service', acknowledging the fact that as a fund raiser and provider of funding, Rotary is merely one of many, but as a provider of service, it is without peer.

International - to raise the awareness and effectiveness of international and world community service provided by Rotary districts and individual clubs, and to identify suitable causes and projects including taking the responsibility for raising the supporting funding.

Rotary Foundation (Rotary's charity)- to support the efforts of Rotary International in fulfilment of Rotary’s mission and the achievement of World understanding and peace, to support Ambassadorial scholars and to identify local candidates for Rotary scholarships.


Youth Activities - to identify and develop projects and activities, which satisfy the needs and develop the aspirations of local young people.
