Rotary Club of Tarporley - Supporting Charities

TARPORLEY ROTARY - WE SUPPORT LOCAL, NATIONAL & INTERNATIONAL CHARITIES.

The picture above shows our involvement in the recent Disability Games. Below are some of the Charities we support.

Rotary Club of Tarporley supporting the Disability Games

LOCAL CHARITIES: During the year we donate money to many local charities both in the Tarporley Area and further afield including Tarporley War Memorial Hospital; Tarporley Opal Club; Oak View Academy, Winsford; Neuromuscular Centre, Winsford; Leighton Hospital, Crewe; Hope House, Chester; Hebden Green Community School, Winsford; Clwyd Special Riding Centre and Claire House Childrens Hospice and the Disability Games.

NATIONAL CHARITIES: We also support National Charities such as Alzheimer's Society; Children in Need; Clic Sargent, Cancer Support for the Young; Disaster Aid UK & Ireland; Macmillan Cancer Support and Margaret Carey Foundation.

END POLIO NOW: This major Rotary project has virtually eliminated Polio from the world. Rotarians have collected millions of dollars. See: the Rotary information videos

SHELTER BOXES: Shelter boxes are those things you see being shipped off to foreign parts whenever there's an earthquake or other man-made or natural disaster. Wonder where they come from? They're shelter boxes and Rotary pays for them to be made and filled. Each box costs about £500 but holds enough to enable a family of 10 to survive for several months with a canvas roof over their heads. Hundreds are stored ready to be shipped at a moment's notice. More are needed all the time so we're ready for the next disaster.
Watch the video below. You'll see that sometimes women will carry these boxes for miles on their heads. We can hardly lift them!

Fun Quiz Night for Claire House Children's Hospice

Our next Quiz Night is on Saturday 16th November!

Our April Quiz Night sold out quickly and raised over £1,300 for St Luke's Hospice. This time we are supporting the Claire House Children's Hospice and with your help we hope to raise even more for them!

... and this is where it goes - supporting early years education in South Africa

We're collecting loose change (or notes!) - any amount, any currency, withdrawn coins, however old - we can turn them into ££££'s!

Supporting Early Education in South Africa

Last year Santa brought excitement and smiles to everyone, from toddlers to senior citizens in Tarporley and the surrounding area, whilst your generosity raised over £2,000 to support charities and community organisations!

Tarporley Village Market is now open at Tarporley Community Centre on the first Saturday of the month, 9.30am to 1.00pm

You are very cordially invited to join us for our showing of "A Haunting in Venice" (12) at 7.30 pm on Friday 15th November in the Tarporley Community Centre. Doors open at 7.00 pm.
