Boatang and Finlay add Limerick to their diaries


Barney Callaghan, District Governor Elect of Rotary International in Ireland and Limerickʼs two Rotary Clubs – Thomond and Shannon are delighted to announce that Fergus Finlay, CEO of Barnardos and The Rt. Hon. Lord Paul Boateng will address this yearʼs Rotary Conference taking place in Limerick City in September.


A Member of Parliament (1987 ‑ 2005), Paul Boateng served as a Cabinet Minister and Chief Secretary to the Treasury under former Prime Minister Tony Blair.


Lord Boateng recently completed a four‑year term as British High Commissioner to South Africa (2005 ‑ 2009) and has 30 years experience in public life, the law, politics, and diplomacy. Lord Boateng is an International Trustee of the Duke of Edinburghʼs International Award Association; a youth charity that offers the world's leading achievement award for young people age 14 to 25.


The working theme for the Conference is ʻThe Next


100 Years ‑ A life in the service of othersʼ which will provide a strong and focused motivational message to Rotarians and highlight the value of Rotaryʼs work at home and abroad most particularly as we embark upon our next century of service, building upon the experiences and successes of the last 100 years. The four‑day event from 22 to 25 September will include dynamic national and international speakers, networking evenings, sporting events, a showcase by Rotary Clubs from across Ireland of their many charitable and service projects, musical entertainment, fine dining, historical walking tours and guided shopping trips. “We have a very strong committee co‑chaired by Pat Kearney and Thomas Hardy, who are all working towards a meaningful and memorable event in Limerick that will be relevant to Rotarians and their families and also have an economic impact for Limerick City businesses”, continues Barney.
