RHS Gold for Wilmslow in Bloom and our Rotary Rose Garden! 🏅Huge Congrats to all local groups which won awards! 👏👏👏

All this would not have been possible without the hard work of volunteers at Wilmslow in Bloom and the Rotary Rose Garden, both under the chairmanship of Rotary President Sue Worthington, who faced particularly challenging weather conditions this year.

Sue is always looking for volunteers to help with the gardening in Wilmslow town centre and at the Rotary Rose Garden and enjoy the fun and fellowship. No gardening experience is required! Contact Sue for details on 07793 581221, email [email protected]

Just 20p can help protect a child from crippling Polio for life. We are 99.9% there, yet it is only a flight away to spread to the UK! Your donation of £1 to Rotary becomes £3 with the 2:1 matching grant from the Gates Foundation, and £3.75 with Gift Aid! Please help us to eradicate this disease through global Rotary International! 🙏

Nothing is too whacky for the Galavanting Grandads from Macc who raised over £20K for local charities! So much fun hearing of their escapades. A ride in a £250 banger complete with loo to Oban 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, on a tandem from London to Brighton and from Macc to Blackpool, a soap box race, appearance in a local panto, a credible take on the Morecambe & Wise breakfast sketch. And there is Janet who loves baking and donates her cakes and sausage rolls for charity in the Gawsworth Hub. No relaxing in slippers by the fire for any of them anytime soon!❤️

It’s been hard work for our greenfingered members to keep the Rotary roses flourishing in the brutal heat. Our recently planted lavenders have survived the drought. They should form a lovely border, attract bees and butterflies and help keep the roses disease free. 💐

The wonderful work of our local hospices was highlighted by Dr Barbara Murray at our President’s Night when President Frank McCarthy handed over to our new president David Pincombe.
It was a night of highlights - two of our members - David Pincombe and ex Inner Wheel Chair Mavis Britnell received the highest Rotary award - a Paul Harris Fellowship- for their tireless and selfless work in the community and for Rotary respectively Inner Wheel.
Dr Barbara Murray, a retired GP, is another community hero volunteering as a palliative GP at the wonderful new Moyà Cole Hospice in Heald Green and as their fundraising ambassador.
Mavis was supported by her longtime family friend Moira Beswick, President of Macclesfield Inner Wheel.
