Frank presented Bernard with the Walker Whale (named after the donor) as an acknowledgement of the 'trauma' caused to him when he was stuck in a lift at the The Queen's Diamond Jubilee Centre. Bernard was preparing the space for the Sports Day for the Disabled to be held the following day. Fortunately all ended well after two hours of confinement!

Thursday evening's meeting was well attended by ordinary and corporate members of the club. This led to a lively exchange of ideas and offers of help moving the '4 for Four' food project forward. Aimee has been a key member in the testing, design and production of the recipe booklets and it gave me great pleasure to present her with a Certificate of Appreciation.

The Sports Day for the Disabled was enjoyed by competitors and volunteers alike. The Mayor, Barabara Brown, showed her competitive side as she tried a few of the activities (final score we won game each!) and happily presented swimming and special awards. It gave me enormous pleasure to recognise the amazing work done by Mark and Flick Furber over the last forty plus years organising the event by giving them each a Paul Harris Award. The Disabled Sports Association also recognised their efforts by awarding them Life Membership of the Association.
