Wow, wow, wow.

Tonight's annual Youth Speaks competition was held at Bablake School, hosted by the Rotary Club of Coventry.
Again, it was all to a very high standard and the students from Bishop Ullathorne, Kenilworth School, President Kennedy School Coventry and Westwood Academy can all be very proud of themselves.
The winners will go on to the District 1060 finals, which will be held in Halesowen in March.

Happy New Year to you all!
Our first meeting of 2026 and we were lucky to have Katherine and Rob from Mary's Meals. A charity that provides over 3 million children with a meal every day at school.
This ensures the children not only attend school but have a nourishing meal too.
Fantastic work.
Anyone who wishes to support this fantastic charity can find them at marysmeals.org.uk

Another excellent meeting today. Our speaker was Adam Hive, Executive Director of Lifepath, who informed us of the progress made since his last appearance as well as the plans for the future. It was wonderful to hear of the opportunities being provided to all those less able citizens.
I also had the great pleasure of awarding the Paul Harris Fellowship to Pru Porretta aka Lady Godiva Coventry . Richly deserved for her 40 plus years in that role.

Another excellent presentation at this week's meeting. We were honoured to host Tony Harvey, Chair of Trustees at Lifelites. An inspiration charity doing amazing things for life limited children, providing a total solution and, in many cases, connecting those children with their parents for the very first time. Life-changing indeed.
