This issue is filled with an array of interesting stories. It is World Polio Day on October 24th and to coincide with this key date we look at the situation in Afghanistan following the Taliban takeover, and how that is going to impact on effort to tackle polio. We have got interviews with key figures within Rotary and the World Health Organization.
Other stories include looking at the work on the Rotary Foundation and the need for legacy-giving, and we turn the spotlight on the Rotary Centre hidden in the Peak District near Sheffield, over 100 years old and the longest running Rotary project in the world.
