Australian Rotary Health is one of the largest independent health research funds in Australia, committed to helping everyday Australians especially those who are least able to help themselves. The research is used to make a real difference to the treatment and prevention of a number of common health problems. In short the Australian Rotary Health supports you and your community towards better health through research, awareness and education.

Three local Rotary Clubs, Greater Springfield, Rocks Riverside and Taylor Bridge have joined forces to help build a healthier future for the community by organising and conducting a very successful Spring Dance.  and friends put on their dancing shoes and favourite hat to dance the night away and raise much needed funds for research. While enjoying themselves on the dance floor the participants also managed to raise over $5000 through silent auctions and raffles, these funds to be donated to the Australian Rotary Health.

All three Rotary Clubs are new clubs and though in their infancy have the energy and enthusiasm to support you and the local community. All are looking to attract motivated people in the community who have a desire to join and help improve the wellbeing of local and international communities.

What in the world does Rotary do? Besides support for the health research, Rotary is also helping to eradicate polio worldwide, provide disaster relief, improve literacy locally and globally, and they are doing so much more.

It feels good to do some good like supporting health research while like in this case having a good time at a Spring Dance. Once a week groups of people get together, leave their egos at the door and help others in the wider community. Its life changing. And we’re probably around the corner from your place. In fact a new club the Rotary Club of Greater Springfield is now meeting at the Brookwater Golf and Country Club.

The Rotary Club of Greater Springfield (prov) holds its meetings every Thursday evening at 6.30pm at the Brookwater Golf and Country Club, 1 Tournament Drive Brookwater.
