In Memory – Remembrance Day
The motto of the Rotary movement is ‘Service Above Self’ and it is today sobering to reflect on the meaning of such words and on the sacrifice of the hundreds of people in Wolverhampton who gave their lives in the service of others.
Each year the the Rotary Clubs of Wolverhampton come together at the City’s Civic Service of Remembrance to honour the fallen. The service brings together representatives of organisations and communities from throughout the City in recognition of the sacrifices made and which continue to be made to preserve our freedoms.
Club Meeting – Sammy Chung
Rotary is a great way to get to know more about people and this evening we had the pleasure of learning more about one of the Club’s newest members Sammy Chung.
Originally from Hong Kong Sammy trained and qualified as a chartered surveyor in the UK before working on projects both here and in the far east. Now a senior lecturer at the University of Wolverhampton’s School of Engineering and the Built Environment and an Honorary Professor at Shenzhen Polytechnic.
As well as exemplifying the Rotary motto of service above self through his vocation Sammy also serves the community as a magistrate on the Wolverhampton bench.
