christine crowe, nantwich rotary club first ever female president

The Rotary Club of Nantwich has appointed a woman as President of the Club for the first time in the club’s history.

Local businesswoman Christine Crowe, who has been a member for over eight years, took the chain of office from Rod Stokes.

Christine runs her own business Barony Recruitment in Nantwich.

She said: “I would like to thank Rod and all the current committee chairs and their members for making this Rotary year such a successful, well organised and enjoyable one.

“I would also like to thank all the committee chairs and their members for agreeing to take on their various responsibilities.

“Without them we would not be able to achieve the amazing fund-raising and local events we continue to manage year in year out.

“For this Presidential year, my Rotary Motto will be ‘Rotary Serving Humanity’.

“As Rotarians we are proud to serve, and a great deal of our activities are for the good of others whether within our local community or internationally.

“My goal is that everyone in and associated with the club should have fun and laugh together and that new members will join us from our local community.”

Outgoing Nantwich Rotary President Rod Stokes added: “This has been a busy year, particularly in our support of the local community.

“We ran several events for our older citizens and youth was also a big focus for our activities.”

Among the projects, the club ran the the Primary School Art and Handwriting Competition, and funded a trip to Chester Zoo for Nantwich Primary Academy.

“We undertook several projects in conjunction with the Civic Society to help improve the appearance of the town,” added Mr Stokes.

Founded 108 years ago, Rotary is a global network of community volunteers.

There are around 31,000 Rotary clubs in more than 165 countries.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
