Never able to ignore a request for help, Epworth & Isle of Axholme Rotary was delighted to be able to support both John Leggott students and users of Scunthorpe General Hospital by funding the purchase of materials to decorate waiting and treatment areas. The students' murals have transformed once plain walls into brighter,more welcoming spaces which makes the day just just a little brighter for patients, families and staff. Members of the Club were thrilled to be able to meet the students and see the work they had done over a number of sessions to make areas of the hospital more vibrant and colourful.
Epworth & Isle of Axholme Rotary has worked for the last 21 years to raise funds and support local individuals and groups and hold events to help the local Community. We have many more projects that we would like to work on, but need more volunteers to help us complete them. We welcome anyone who would like to get involved and give a little back to the community.
To find out more about what we get up to, contact us at axholmerotary@gmail.com for an informal chat or come and see us in person. We'd love to meet you!
