Paul Harris Fellow recognition

The Rotary Foundation is Rotary’s own charity which then distributes the funds on various good causes ranging from Polio eradication , sanitation and disaster aid. Paul Harris was the founder of Rotary back in 1905 and clubs can recognise both Rotarians and non Rotarians as “Paul Harris Fellows” for outstanding service in the community , club or elsewhere. The awards were presented by District Governor Edwin Partridge and our President Kevin Spiller. The well attended evening was organised by our Rotary Foundation Charman , Najib Yousif.
