New President for Priory Rotary

Priory Rotary’s new President for 2024/25 is John Leonard. John joined the club as an Associate member in 2014 on a trial basis, became a full member in 2016, joined a working party to propose ways of modernising the club in 2018, took on the post of Club Service chair in 2023, and was appointed Club President at a handover ceremony at Knight’s Hill on Wednesday this week. Handing over to John, outgoing President Paul Batterham reflected on his year at the helm and wished John well for the coming year. In Paul’s year the club has been very active with fundraising events, working on environmental projects locally and internationally, engaging with youth projects, and enjoying a full social programme with partners. John promised to build on this and pledged his full support to all members old and new.
