Past Events
Some of us are high on sociability, social boldness and social self-esteem, and we are comfortable meeting new people and starting a conversation that needs no preparation. However, on the other end, some individuals are shy, introverted or lack the confidence to meet and greet people. Does the latter sound like you? Then, this event was for YOU!
Focusing on the ways in which we can build purposeful relationships and closely held friendships within Rotary through the use of sharing stories, creating a sense of belonging.
On the 9th of July, REQ and Beaufort Rotary Club had our first ever joint agile planning session! With a bunch of design thinking activities from master facilitator Nick Lim, the two clubs developed and workshoped 5 events that are now ready to be released like beautiful birds from their eggs into the world!

RotaryEQ continues to respond to expressions of interest following Episode 1 of our Neighbourly Helping Hand series of volunteering opportunities. With a fistful of whippersnippers and rakes, the crew completely transformed the yard of a property in a women's disability co-op housing complex.
Rotary is here to uplift and elevate all members of the community. As a Rotarians we consider ourselves to be servants of the community, so of course we helped Clare. Spread this message far and wide, that It's OK to ask for help.
Many messages of gratitude were received in the feedback, paying thanks to members who show leadership, help boost our reach through social media, and generally help to get stuff done. One message spoke of the value in a particular Leadership & Personal Development opportunity that was discovered through REQ.
Volunteer Service Organisations like Rotary, Lions, Apex, and Rotaract provide a noble service to the community. In smaller communities, these services are often quite critical to maintain and sustain the environment, health, safety and wellbeing of people in our communities.
A major challenge we face as volunteer organisations is how do we attract and retain volunteers to sustain our good works?
Over the course of 8 months in a series of 3 workshops, REQ projects team collaborated with Vinnie’s English Language Centre based in Nollamara, to provide an opportunity for refugee and migrant participants to co-design some life-skills workshops facilitated by REQ members and subject matter experts.
Supporting charity has never been so stylish! Amazing event featuring a sizzling lineup of Perth Designers!
