We have a crisis team that will immediately respond to both local, national and international appeals with:

 

Shelter Boxes

Water Aid

 


 

Shoe Boxes


Floods

Polio


 



Civic disasters both nationally and internationally 

 

We encourage speakers from various agencies and other rotary clubs that have bespoke projects e.g. Nepal Earthquake.

Local events

Locally we held an African and Afghan Nights supporting Asylum and Refugees in Darwen we supported an Arabian Night at St Edwards, Parish Hall. 


 

 

We have supported asylum seekers and refugees within our local community who have proffesional quailifications in gaining voluntary, employment & vocational opportunities and given financial grants accordingly.

 

We donated an Autoclave – a large sterilising machine for the Maua Methodist Hospital in Kenya via an old Darwen contact Barbara Dickinson who has a Nursing Tutor at the hospital and spends six month in England and the rest in Kenya.      

           

We sent a donation to support Bee keeping in Ethiopia
