ABOUT PROBUS

Probus is a community service activity of Rotary Clubs.

Probus is an association of retired and semi-retired people who join together in clubs, the basic purpose of which is to provide regular opportunities for them to keep their minds active, expand their interests and enjoy the fellowship of new friends.

Probus originated in the U.K. in 1965. The first Clubs were formed to meet the need for companionship and mental stimulation for retired business men.

Today, there are clubs for male, female and combined gender. The first Australian Club was formed in Hunters Hill in 1976, sponsored by the Rotary Club of Hunters Hill, NSW.

Probus has filled a need for today's active retirees, so much so that the growth has been phenomenal. It has now become a world-wide movement in twenty three countries.
