POLIO IS ONLY A PLANE RIDE AWAY.

While tremendous progress has been made towards eradicating polio worldwide, the fight is far from over.

Until polio is eliminated everywhere, children everywhere remain at risk, including right here in Barbados and across the Caribbean.

As Ryan Best, District PolioPlus Committee Chair for Rotary District 7030, reminds us, rising vaccine hesitancy and global conflicts disrupting healthcare threaten to reverse decades of progress.

On this World Polio Day, the Rotary Club of Barbados South stands alongside Rotary clubs across Barbados and around the world in reaffirming our commitment to ending polio for good.

💉 Get informed. Get vaccinated. Get involved.

We’ve come too far to turn back now. Together, we can protect future generations and make polio history.

TOGETHER, WE END POLIO!

Today, on World Polio Day, the Rotary Club of Barbados South joins Rotarians around the globe in reaffirming our commitment to a world free from polio.

Since 1988, Rotary and its partners have helped immunize more than 3 billion children worldwide, bringing us closer than ever to ending this devastating disease.

💉 Every vaccine brings hope. Every child protected brings us one step closer to a polio-free world.

📸 Pictured is our very own Past President Hiranand Thani administering polio vaccines in India in 2020 - a powerful reminder that Rotary’s commitment to Service Above Self knows no borders.

The fight isn’t over, but together, we can make polio the second human disease ever eradicated.

Let’s finish what we started. End Polio Now!

This week, we were privileged to welcome Akeem Rudder, Autism Exercise Specialist and Inclusion and Disability Educator at IncludeU Sports Academy IncludeU Sports Academy to speak to our club.

Akeem shared his passion for supporting persons with disabilities in Barbados and the meaningful difference his work makes in the lives of his clients and their families.

His presentation deepened our understanding of autism spectrum disorder, highlighting the diverse experiences and support needs of autistic people. He reminded us that inclusion means recognising each person’s strengths and creating opportunities for everyone to participate.

Akeem challenged community organisations to take four practical steps:

🤝 Welcome: Make clubs, events and activities accessible, flexible and welcoming to persons with disabilities.
💡 Learn: Build disability awareness among members, staff and volunteers.
🌍 Partner: Support organisations already working with families and communities.
🏅 Create opportunities: Help persons on the spectrum participate in sport, recreation, education and community life.

We commend Akeem for his dedication, compassion and commitment to service. Thank you for inspiring us to help build a more inclusive Barbados where everyone feels welcomed, valued and able to thrive.

🕊️ PEACE BEGINS IN OUR COMMUNITIES

Observed annually on 21 September, the International Day of Peace calls on people and nations everywhere to strengthen the ideals of peace through 24 hours of non-violence and ceasefire.

For Rotary, peace is more than the absence of conflict—it is something we actively build. Rotary invests in peace education and capacity-building, develops strategic relationships and integrates peacebuilding throughout its programmes and service.

Through service projects, peace fellowships and scholarships, Rotary members help address the underlying causes of conflict, including poverty, discrimination, ethnic tension, limited access to education and the unequal distribution of resources.

Across Rotary District 7030, let us choose dialogue over division, understanding over prejudice and collaboration over conflict. Every action that strengthens inclusion, expands opportunity and brings people together helps create a more peaceful world.

When people work to create peace within their communities, that change can have a global impact.

United, we are stronger—and together, we can create lasting impact.

The Rotary Club of Barbados South celebrated International Literacy Day 2026 with the presentation of little libraries to primary schools under its Little Libraries for Childhood Literacy project.

In Rotary, September is Basic Education and Literacy Month, which highlights one of Rotary International's core areas of focus and as such the project is designed not only to provide access to books, but also to build sustainable literacy practices through skill and knowledge transfer.

This project was made possible through funding provided by a District 7030 Rotary Foundation District Grant , and we thank the District for their support!

Rotary District 7030 begins a new Rotary year with purpose, vision and renewed commitment.

In his presentation to launch the 2026–2027 Rotary year, District Governor Maurice Saad invites Clubs across the District to embrace the Presidential Theme, Create Lasting Impact, by strengthening our service, deepening our connections and continuing to make a meaningful difference in the communities we serve.

As we step into this new year, we look forward to working together across our District to serve with intention, lead with purpose and create impact that lasts.
