Rotary announce Bumper Year for Charity Donations

Leighton Linslade Rotary announce that 2022/23 was a bumper year for its charitable work with a massive £37,000 being distributed to predominantly local charities and a further £22,000 being used to fund its award winning Disability Sports Program “ Yes We Can”.

The Rotary year ending on the 30th June 2023 proved to be a fantastic year for Rotary,and  its increasing membership. With the Club being able to restore May Day Fayre to its traditional beginning of summer slot as well as working with Santa to facilitate his visits to the streets of the parish. In addition the club has been able to support the worldwide rotary effort to assist the people of Ukraine and closer to home many local charities have benefited as well as its own award winning “Yes We Can” Disability Sports program which goes from strength to strength and means Leighton Linslade has become a centre of excellence for Inclusion Sport.

A Rotary Spokesman said:

None of Rotary’s work would be possible without the vital partnerships that we have built with commercial and charitable foundations enabling us to deliver events, support other charities and lead the most amazing disability sports program in Bedfordshire. We would like to send our sincere thanks to all those partners but in particular Leighton Linslade Town Council who continue to be enthusiastic supporters of our work in the community.

Finally we wish to thank the community of Leighton Linslade as a whole, it is your generosity,support and trust which makes what we do possible and we intend to honour that trust by continuing to do our very best to make 2023/24 another bumper year.
