| Past President 2000-01 & 2005-06: David Clout | Past President 2016-17: Nick Male |
David Clout was presented with an award for his work as chairman of the Visually Impaired Club and of the Talking Newspaper which he has volunteered at for 30 years, as well as helping to start the town’s Foodbank. In a film recorded for the council David said: “It so happens that the Rotary motto ‘service above self’ fits in well with my own Christian beliefs. “Whether it is half an hour or five hours a week, please put something into the community. You will get something out of it.”
