Club Meeting

Wed, Feb 22nd 2017 at 12:30 pm - 2:30 pm

Speaker by Eric Meanock. Disaster Aid UK


We welcomed Past District Governor, Colin Ince to our meeting today and he gave us a well informed talk on the work of Disaster Aid UK & Irleand beginning with a short video clip on "Tropical Cyclone Winston" in Fiji in 2016. He outlined the main features of Disaster Aid solutions including the tents, the Life Box and the Sky Hydrant. Members of our club clearly wanted to know  how Disaster Aid differed from Shelterbox and Colin explained that whereas the focus of Shelterbox is on first response to a disaster, Disaster Aid are more concerned with working to help communities recover in the longer term.
