2023
Falmouth Rotary donated £1000 towards Falmouth Rainbows. Rachel Whitman explained the need to set up a second Rainbows group in Falmouth due to the current 2 year waiting list of over 30 girls. Rainbows is 30 years old and caters for girls between 4-7 yrs old. It falls under the umbrella of Girl Guides and Brownies. Rainbows strives to present a wide variety of activities for girls to develop their self-confidence, build friendships and learn new things through arts and crafts, getting in touch with nature and games.
