More Outreach support for Martin
Hon Rotarian Martin Heath joined club members to share his reflections of 10 years missionary work in Kenya with his wife, Judy. He also received a further donation from the Club to support the medical outreach programme.
President Barry welcomed Martin to the meeting and also presented him with a cheque for £975.15 which will go toward the next medical outreach initiative which Martin & Judy will have in the Shimba Hills area of Kenya where they work. The medical outreach programme has been running for 8 out of the 10 years they have been in Kenya and Soham Rotary are keen to support the initiative in an ongoing way.
Rotarians Graham & Geoff organise a Race night back in MArch which helped generate the funds presented to Martin.
Martin & Judy are returning to Kenya shortly affter spending some time with his family which this time involved the marriage of their eldest daughter Bekkie. We wish everyone well for the future.
