Every year Rotarians all over the UK team up with Kids Out to take disadvantaged children on a special day out. This year it was the 25th Anniversary of these events.
The first Kids Out took place in 1990 and was organised by Kingston Rotary in conjunction with Littlewoods. The event has grown in popularity ever since and this year over 25,000 children will have enjoyed a day out across the UK.
Newbury Rotarians this year took 41 children and 30 helpers from Castle School, Newbury to Paulton's Park. There they were joined by 1500 children and a further 1000 helpers and Rotarians from across Hampshire, Berkshire, Dorset and the Isle of Wight.
Everyone had a great day on the rides, enjoying the sunshine. Smiles and laughter all round.
