Annual Community Award
Portland Rotary Club's annual award is nominated by members of the public and presented to a deserving individual who has helped the Portland Community.
This year's winner is Anna Eveleigh, for her work with the Alzheimers Society and their 'singing for the brain' service. Congratulations to her, we look forward to presenting the cheque and certificate soon.
This award was introduced in 1985 and is given annually to a deserving Portland citizen, who has worked tirelessly to improve the lives of people in our Community. It could be for something on a small or large scale and is open to people who work as volunteers, or are paid for their work.
The winner receives a framed certificate and a cheque for £150, given to the Charity of their choice.
