Rotary in Great Harwood & Rishton

27/06/2024

Today we presented our 5,000 dictionary to Dehan, a pupil ay St. Peter and St. Paul's Primary School in Rishton. We've been giving dictionaries to Primary School pupils in our two towns since 2008 and, sadly, today's presentation was our last one. We were joined by guests Mr and Mrs Watson from the Watson Foundation who have donated some books and Mr and Mrs Mason from in Cumbria & Lancashire. How many of you reading this will remember getting a dictionary from us?

Today is Earth Day, a day to remember how delicate the world is and a day to think what can be done to protect it.
5 years ago, Rotary challenged the 1.2 million Rotarians around the world, to plant trees. Our club planted about 60 saplings in front of our local Health Centre. The photographs show the growth of these trees in that time.

What do you do with empty plastic sweet tubs leftover from the Santa collection? Answer donate them to Macmillian Cancer Support via the tub2pub scheme. They get paid and the environment has less plastic in it

Greene King is running ‘Tub2Pub’, a recycling campaign to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support and recycle plastics.

All the things that people thought Rotary was about are probably WRONG. Take a look…….

Whatever you think you know about Rotary - it’s probably not like that !
