Knighton Community Centre support

Wed, Jan 30th 2013 at 12:00 am - 12:00 am

We fund an extractor fan for the Support Groups Furniture Barn in Knighton.

JANUARY 30TH 2013 - Extractor fan installed at the Barn, Knighton

The Barn is part of the Knighton Community Support Project's aim to raise money and to provide work for young unemployed people. Our donation of this extractor fan is part of our Rotary Club's efforts to support local projects and young people. Seen here are Bob Wright, volunteer (currently unemployed status) who has become invaluable in the workshop and the heavy work in the barn, Centre: Joe Douglas, new trainee on work experience as part of a college course in carpentry, Right: Derek Gerrard our Barn Manager. The extractor is in the foreground. http://www.facebook.com/KnightonAndDistrictCommunitySupportProjectTheBarn/info
