Congratulations to Margaret and the thirteen other winners of the Easter Eggs in the Hemel Hempstead Rotary Easter Egg raffles. A huge thank you to everyone who purchased tickets and the 14 pubs and clubs (listed below) that supported us with this project. The £750 raised will be donated to Dacorum Community Trust, holders of The King's Award for Voluntary Service, who provide practical support for local people in crisis, acting as a last resort when the assistance they need is not available elsewhere.

Last Monday Hemel Rotary held our second presentation evening of Santa Sleigh funds at Leverstock Green Cricket Club. Thanks to the generosity of the public we were able to donate £180 to 23 local clubs and organisations (listed below) all of whom give tremendous support to our local community. Donations were also given to Collett School to enable 23 children to join the Rotary Club's Children's Fun Day out at Whipsnade Zoo, to Music at St Johns and to The Apsley Paper Trail.
