Rotary kindness

The warmth of the sunshine outside wasonly outdone by the warmth of the welcome our voluntary coordinator Elizabeth Gomm received when she was guest at Kirkham and Rural Fylde Rotary at Ribby Hal, Kirkham, last night.
Elizabeth had been invited to give a talk about Happy House by their president, Roger Kendrick, who had heard her speak at a recent media day for the Rotary District.
Elizabeth explained how her work as a journalist had led to her meeting Sue and about Mama Sue's road to the Happy House.
She gave an insight into the way Sue's work and Happy House has developed in the last eight years and the way in which children's lives are being transformed.
The Rotarians said they were both touched and impressed by Sue's work and by the passion of the presentation.
A cheque for £100 was presented to Elizabeth by Roger on behalf of the club.
Thank you Kirkham and Rural Fylde Rotary for your kindness and generosity. Every penny will go to benefit the children in our care.
