Every year on 24th October, Rotary clubs around the world mark World Polio Day, highlighting the global effort to eradicate polio.
Rotary has been at the heart of the fight against polio for more than 40 years and have helped immunise hundreds of millions of children and have worked alongside governments and health organisations to reduce polio from a disease affecting children in almost every country to just a handful of remaining areas. The job is not finished until polio is eradicated in the world.
