Rotary Club of Paterson - NSW Australia

28/05/2026

What an incredible community event — and what a privilege to see the Rotary Club of Paterson showing up alongside so many other fantastic local organisations in our beautiful region.

We were thrilled to be featured in the Dungog Shire News of the Area this week — a reminder that when community groups come together, the impact is amplified for everyone.

A huge shoutout to Julie Overton and the Paterson Community Builders for organising such a wonderful day. Events like this are exactly what community is all about — connection, collaboration, and showing up for each other.

To our incredible Rotary members who attended and volunteered on the day — you are the heart of this club.

This is what Create Lasting Impact looks like in real life.

What makes a good life? 🤔

For nearly 90 years, researchers from the Harvard Second Generation Study have followed the lives of more than 700 people to better understand health, happiness, and human connection. Their conclusion? It’s not wealth or status that matters most. It’s relationships.

Dr. Marc Schulz shares how strong social connections can improve our well-being. One way to build those connections? Volunteering alongside others in your community.

Discover why investing in relationships may be one of the most important things we can do for our health and our communities.

🌸💛 THANK YOU 💛🌸

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone who supported the Paterson Rotary Mother’s Day Flower Stall last weekend💐.

The support from our community was truly incredible, and we are so grateful to every single person who stopped by, purchased flowers, chocolates or sweet treats, shared our posts, volunteered their time, or simply helped spread the word ❤️

Not only were you supporting our Rotary community projects, but you were also directly supporting our amazing local growers, makers and small businesses this Mother’s Day 🌸🍫🌿

This is what community is all about — locals supporting locals, people coming together, and kindness flowing back into the community we all love so much 💛

Thank you for helping make this year’s stall such a beautiful success. We appreciate you more than words can say ✨
