Rotary In Our Community

HADDENHAM ROTARY - People In Action

Haddenham Rotary are committed to supporting our local community

by carrying out local enhancement projects and 'feel good' activities

and by supporting local good causes

The events shown below and pages featured in the right hand sidebar,

illustrate some of the ways we have recently contributed

to benefit our local community

"We always welcome suggestions for new and innovative projects

and extend a warm welcome to residents wanting to 'put something back'

through our 'Friends of Haddenham Rotary' initiative"

A BIG THANK YOU

Dear Friends and Neighbours of Haddenham and the surrounding villages

A year ago, who would have thought that a virus could have wreaked havoc
to our normal way of life and especially to our Christmas family celebrations

Something had to be done to brighten our days, and
Haddenham Rotary were determined to do that “something”

As an act of kindness we decided to place bunches of flowers
around the village from late November to Christmas

Our hope was to brighten an otherwise dull, dreary and even dark day
for those who found the flowers

Your response has been amazing
The kind words of appreciation that you have written on social media
make our efforts all worthwhile
 
On behalf of myself and all of my Haddenham Rotary colleagues
a big thank you, you are very kind
 
We look forward to next year when, hopefully
we can meet once again and work with the village
providing support when and where it is needed

Keep well and keep safe

Best wishes for Christmas and the New Year
