Comment on speaker:
Last Rotary year, Tom Dickerson set himself a stiff challenge as President of Knutsford Rotary, looking to involve all the other Rotary Clubs in the District that wanted to participate. The challenge was to do a presentation to as many Clubs within the District, as was possible.
If the members felt that it was a good presentation, and they felt that his chosen charity was worth supporting, it was up to them and their Club to decide what they would like to donate. To date the presentation has been very well received and our club will be listening to Tom speak at this meeting.
His main objective is to raise as much money for Bridge2aid – a dental charity – as he can
Newton Rotary agreed to donate £250 to this charity.
