At this evening’s meeting we heard from our member Leon Wade about his and his wife Vicky’s love of Steampunk. Vicky and Leon make all of their own costumes and props some of which they brought along tonight. Oh course the temptation to try them on was too much for some members🤦

This week we had a talk from Martin Wilson of Sight Support Derbyshire SSD. Martin explained how they support visually impaired people across Derbyshire. He shared many of the simple but ingenious products that help in everyday life for those with varying degrees of sight loss. He provided spectacles for members to try on which simulated the different types of sight impairment. Members approved a donation of £200 to help this excellent charity with its crucial work.

On Friday night members of Erewash Rotary , family and friends enjoyed an evening of cheese tasting. Thanks to Hannah at for explaining how the 8 different cheeses were made. The most popular were the caramelised red onion cheese and a mango chutney cheese followed closely by the vintage mature cheddar. A great night and we suspect lots of nightmares 😁

We recently had an inspiring talk from Ed and Steve of Apocalypse Explorer Scout Group. They explained how they have a growing group of very active 14 to 18 year olds. Their current tents are no longer fit for use and this could curtail their activities severely. Members unanimously agreed to fund the purchase of 4 new tents at a cost of £1,000. The cheque was presented by President Roger
