Exploratory Meeting

The first meeting of “Malta Round Table” was held 21st March 1975.

The initial exploratory meeting that led to the formation of Round Table Malta was held at the Dragonara Hotel, St Julian’s at 7pm on Friday 21 March 1975, during which Frank Pattison outlined the history, principles, and international structure of the Round Table movement to prospective members. The meeting covered the aims and objects of Round Table, its non-political and non-sectarian nature, membership by invitation, meeting format, and the emphasis on fellowship and community service, drawing comparisons with Rotary and Lions while stressing Round Table’s autonomy and youthful character. Following the discussion, a motion proposed by Joe Scicluna to establish a Round Table in Malta was carried unanimously, with 15 members voting in favour, and a programme of further preliminary meetings was agreed to lead towards the formal founding and chartering of Round Table Malta later in 1975.
