🌟 The Rotary Four-Way Test: A Guiding Principle for Better Decisions 🌟

A graphic setting out the Rotary Four Way Test

At Rotary, we believe that integrity and ethical behavior are the cornerstones of a thriving community. That’s why the Rotary Four-Way Test is an essential tool we use to guide our actions and decisions. Adopted by Rotary in 1943 this simple yet powerful set of questions helps us navigate complex situations with clarity and moral purpose.

The Four-Way Test:

Is it the truth? 🗣️

Is it fair to all concerned? ⚖️

Will it build goodwill and better friendships? 🤝

Will it be beneficial to all concerned? 🌍

The Benefits:

✨ Integrity and Honesty: By asking, “Is it the truth?” we ensure that our actions and communications are transparent and truthful, building trust and credibility.

✨ Fairness and Equity: The question, “Is it fair to all concerned?” promotes fairness and justice, fostering an inclusive environment where everyone is treated with respect.

✨ Goodwill and Friendship: “Will it build goodwill and better friendships?” reminds us to prioritize positive relationships and collaboration, strengthening our sense of community.

✨ Beneficial Impact: Lastly, “Will it be beneficial to all concerned?” encourages us to consider the broader impact of our decisions, ensuring that our actions contribute to the greater good.

The Rotary Four-Way Test isn’t just a guideline for Rotary members — it’s a universal tool that can help anyone make better, more ethical decisions. Join us in embracing these principles and creating a brighter, more just world together. 🌟🌍

Ukraine – two years on

As we saw the second anniversary of Russia’s invasion of the Ukraine members of the Club joined with representatives of the local Ukrainian community at a service hosted by the City Mayor in his parlour to remember those who have died and those who continue to bravely defend their nation.

From the first days of the invasion Tettenhall Rotary has been providing practical aid to those impacted by the invasion with donations of essential equipment including large diesel generators, portable power stations, food, medicine and clothing.

Two years on that support continues with our latest donation to help buy replacement supplies for a school in Lviv which was recently hit by Russian missiles.

With no quick end in sight our fundraising to continue our support for those bravely resisting Russian aggression continues with one half of the proceeds of our charity Golf Day on the 7th June this year to be used for Ukrainian relief efforts.

You can help support our work by entering a team in the Golf Day, by donating a complimentary round of golf, by providing items as playing or raffle prizes, by sponsoring a tee, by sponsoring the event or by making a donation now at http://tettenhallrotary.org.uk/donate.

To enter the competition email us golf@tettenhallrotary.org.uk.
