On Wednesday 3rd October 2018, around forty
members, partners and friends of Leatherhead Rotary Club attended the
club's weekly meeting at the Police Federation Headquarters in Leatherhead to
see Gary Zabel, the club’s Immediate Past President, present a cheque for
£15,000 to Jack Bacon from Prostate Cancer UK, the club’s main charity for
support during the previous Rotary year.
This fantastic figure represents the largest single amount the club has ever
donated to a charity and was raised through a wide variety of events throughout
the preceding twelve months, including the club’s annual Golf Day and 10k Run,
together with a very special sell-out Band Concert at Leatherhead Theatre,
featuring the British Philharmonic Big Band, led by trombonist Andy Crompton, a
close personal friend of Mr Zabel, and who himself was diagnosed with prostate
cancer in 2014.
