Last Wednesday, we had the pleasure of hearing from fellow Rotarian, James Norsworthy, who delivered an engaging and informative presentation on both the historical significance and current trends of gold.

Gold has long been recognized as a stable store of value, often sought after during times of economic uncertainty. Its resilience across centuries, combined with continued global demand from industries and investors alike, makes it a unique and enduring asset. James provided valuable insight into how these factors continue to influence today’s market, offering perspective that was both timely and thought-provoking.

Thank you, James, for sharing your knowledge and for such an enlightening presentation.

If you haven’t joined us before, we invite you to attend today’s meeting at 12:00pm, where we will welcome our guest speaker, Kayleigh Smith-Page, Director of Theatre at NACC.
