For non-Rotarians, this is effectively a club's birthday party, and we were our
celebrating 42 years of service and fellowship in Wensleydale.
We had a lovely dinner at The Falls Cafe in Aysgarth, followed by speeches and our continuing President Ray Wilkinson welcoming David Spashett as her Deputy.
Speakers from Caring For Life Charity, which is supported by the club, told us more about their work with the most underprivileged in society and thanked us for our continuing support.
We were joined by guests from Richmond and Upper Eden Rotary Clubs, and if you would like to join us in our work, or see and hear more of what we do, please come along to one of our meetings for a chat !
Wensleydale Rotary is committed to local charity fund raising, community service and involvement, especially promoting ethical and sustainable projects. Calling on the many decades of our members’ experience in Wensleydale, we bring a unique mix of local expertise and organising skill to our efforts. All are welcome to come along and see what our club does, and new ideas for our efforts are always welcome !
