More Rotary Support for Local Charities

Three local charities have benefited from a charity fund-raising Classic Car and Bike Show which raised nearly £5,000. Organised by the Rotary Club of Chesterfield the event was held in June at Renishaw Hall. Cheques for £1,600 each were presented to representatives from Ashgate Hospice, Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice and Weston Park Hospital Cancer Charity at the club’s weekly meeting held at the Olde House, Newbold, on Friday 10 August. Also in attendance was Tony Cordin, director of Autoworld, the event’s main sponsor.

President Jim Haggarty presented cheques for £1,600 each to Alison Ward-Foster, fund-raiser for Ashgate Hospice, Gillian Scotford, ambassador for Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice whose son is a regular user of the hospice, and Helen Gentle, fund-raiser for Weston Park Hospital Cancer Charity, who reported that the donation would go to a new fund set up for the pioneering of new treatments currently on trial and not provided by the NHS.
