We were busy in October collecting coats for the needy: we were able to do this because of the generosity of both StoreFirst who gave us storage, free gratis, and Padiham Tesco who made a collection box to put in their store.

150 coats, jumpers, socks  and several items of children's clothing were collected in just over a week and given to charities who know  best who to give the items to.

We no longer give out the small Collins dictionaries to several local Primary Schools as we are unable to source, and buy, enough of them because they are not being printed in such large numbers.

However we will still be running a writing competition where we are asking the children to respond to a given topic.There are prizes for the winner in each school and an overall prize and Trophy for the winner from all the schools who enter.

During the year we have several excellent speakers covering a wide range of topics at our meetings

Please remember that we do have Padiham Rotary Facebook Page
