Haddenham Rotary COVID Support

Rotary and Haddenhm and Aylesbury Co-op Stores support
Haddenham Vaccination Volunteers

Co-op ethos is to put help and support of local communities
at the centre of everything they do

Haddenham and Walton Court Co-op Stores in collaboration, made a donation to share a little bit of festive cheer with community members who have given exemplary service as COVID Vaccination Volunteers

Starting in March 2020, Haddenham and District Rotary's Martin Andrew has recruited and trained over 100 volunteers including other Haddenham Rotarians, and managed the volunteer rota delivering up to 400 vaccinations each day

Vaccination volunteers have assisted at the JMW Vicary Pharmacy in Haddenham by supervising car parking, managing the queues waiting for their vaccination, conducted mandatory observations of the vaccinated, and where appropriate offered advice to the public

The Co-op wanted to recognise the exceptional effort of the 10 volunteers who have selflessly each contributed well over 40 hours each to the Haddenham vaccination programme

Indeed the top volunteer Lynne has done over 140 hours, and Martin himself has now exceeded 140 hours

 An exceptional effort on behalf of our community

The team of Haddenham volunteers has donated an overall total of 2000 hours of work, and across Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Berkshire, vaccination volunteers, many of them Rotarians, have donated over 50,000 hours. A truly exceptional commitment

It is very likely Haddenham will donate many more volunteer hours in 2022
