Also on the menu was a short talk by Rtn Alan Franklin on Lend with Care - a microfinancing charity with worldwide impact. Donated money is loaned out and recycled again and again as small businesses get off the ground or expand their operations, then repay their loans - all well governed and encouraged by well vetted local agents. The Club has a very active account and sponsors 2 schools to do the same.
Jools was very pleased to achieve completing the Cambridge Half Marathon 2019 with energy to spare and has raised more than £260 so far for charity Cambridge Rape Crisis centre. - see photographic evidence !
