Got a Burning Question about Public Image?  Then, join us (virtually) for a Q&A Webinar and have your question answered. A panel of the public image coordinator team will be available to answer any questions you may have to do with how your Club can raise its public image, tell its Rotary stories, get its branding compliant, or maximise its impact through social media.

As public image is every Rotarian's responsibility, the Q&A is open to ALL Rotarians , not just your public image director. Participant numbers will be restricted to allow for maximum interaction and discussion. To register your interest contact Rotary Public Image Cordinator, Gina Growden on gina.growden@bigpond.com, or mobile 0412 128 106, and the Zoom link will be forwarded to you.
