Peace, Partnership and a New Home for the Rotary Club of Canterbury: Elizabeth Shepherd, Past President of the Rotary Club of Canterbury

In this episode of the Rotary and Community Service Radio Show on 94.1FM 3WBC, Lili-Ann Kriegler talks with Elizabeth Shepherd, who led the Rotary Club of Canterbury through an unusual 18-month presidency.

A scientist-turned-teacher, Elizabeth reflects on the path that led her to Rotary and the president’s chair. She tells the story behind the peace poles now standing in Victoria Park, Kew, and what it took to bring them from an idea to reality. She also shares how the club found its new home, why structure matters as much as enthusiasm, and what it’s like when two members of one household belong to different clubs.

Stay to the end to hear the quote Elizabeth lives by, and why it matters so much to her.
