The annual collection made by members of Wigan Rotary
Club in the company of Father Christmas throughout December 2016 has been a
huge success with the total amount raised reaching £15,073! The club considers
this a magnificent achievement by Wiganers.
Wigan Rotary President Maureen Bilsbrough said ‘ I would like to thank everyone
along the floats routes each evening and in the Supermarkets for their terrific
generosity, which will enable Wigan Rotary Club to support local, national and
international charities to which we are committed. This support is an amazing
testament for us and will encourage us to try even harder in 2017’
Maureen continued, ‘we are extremely grateful for
everyone’s generosity.
There was valuable support from the staff of Wigan Council, Local Life newspaper,groups
and clubs including the newly formed Rotary Interact Club. The local
Supermarkets, Asda and Tesco, along with staff at The Galleries, and the Town
Centre Manager, who all offered venues to facilitate collections, plus last but
not least, the invaluable support of local press who promote our activities
throughout the year, so what a wonderful example of community engagement”.
