We delivered bags of Christmas goodies to families at the Malpas Hub - the chocolate reindeers were particularly popular!

It was great weather when we helped with the clear up following the Truro City Fireworks.

We are glad to support the Rotary End Polio campaign. To mark World Polio Day in October we planted hundreds of purple crocus bulbs in our local park. We look forward to the display in the New Year.

Thank you to all who donated coats, fleeces, tents and other items during our recent collection for the homeless at Deoran Village Hall.

We had a fascinating presentation from Luci Isaacson of Climate Change at our meeting in September. Luci encouraged us to fill in individual plans to help manage our risks in the event of a flood. We also heard that Climate Vision have 400 places available on a 2 day climate change course. To register interest contact Luci by email using the button below.

Members Mike and John proudly installed the plaque in Victoria Gardens in Truro to commemorate 100 years of Rotary in Truro.  The waterfall is a wonderful feature of the gardens and we are honoured to have our club recognised in such a beautiful setting.

The meeting discussed a calendar of varied activities for the year ahead including restoration of a water feature in Victoria Gardens, crocus planting to mark World Polio Day and a display to highlight International Day of Peace.

At our meeting in August w heard a moving and inspiring presentation from Stephen Lay, who has raised £102K in memory of his late wife Carol, for the Siblings Support FundChildren's Hospice South West. This money has funded six community support workers, and helped 450 siblings and 400 bereaved siblings.
