Purple for Polio
RotaKids get their hands dirty for a great cause.
24th October 2025 was world polio day. Earlier that week our Harden Primary School RotaKids got their hands dirty for a great cause — planting purple crocuses to raise awareness for the fight to end polio!
Well done Rotakids - there will be a great display of purple crocuses in front of school this spring, many thanks to Woodbank Nurseries - Harden, Bingley for donating the bulbs and spending time with the children planting them today.
And, purple crocus badges were on sale in school during the week, which raised a magnificent £106.24.Thanks to Rotary's partnership with the Gates Foundation, these generous donations will be matched 2-to-1, turning £106.24 into £318.72. This will enable 1600 vulnerable children to be vaccinated.
