Santa in Penistone

Resilient Rotarians raise £1000 for Charity


Penistone never fails to surprise, and if you take into account the awful weather, we raised just short of £1000 in two days, an incredible result.

Stainborough Rotarians braved the elements and stood outside Tesco in awful conditions on Saturday 15th Dec and slightly better conditions on Sunday 16th Dec, helping the Club raise this for all our charities, a big thank you.

The Club would like to thank Tesco for their sponsorship in supplying the sweets for the children and letting us park our Sleigh and also thank all the shoppers who also braved the elements and were so very generous.
