Anyone for India?

A Hindu temple in Chennai

The Rotary Club of Amersham together with its equivalent organisation in Chesham, is looking for four individuals who would like to spend four weeks in India, “looking at life” in the southern city of Chennai, better known by its former name Madras. These volunteers would need to have a chosen trade or profession in order to focus their studies on similar lines of business over there. They would also be required to stay with Indian Rotarians in their own homes and follow a comprehensive itinerary to enable them to get a good understanding of how their counterparts work, as well as the general way of life. There is a strong emphasis on team work and the succesful applicants would be expected to adhere to this.
Team members must be between the ages of 25 and 40 years of age and in employment. The only costs to the individual are personal insurance, any immunisation required and spending money. All other costs are met by Rotary.
This truly exotic trip will take place at the beginning of 2010 and in the meantime both Amersham and Chesham Rotary Clubs will be interviewing all potential candidates. These will be held in September and, if anyone is interested or knows someone who might be, please contact either Mervyn Edwards of the Rotary Club of Chesham on 01494 792382 or Philip Roberts of the Rotary Club of Amersham on 01494 783513.
