QA Children's Emergency Project Nears Completion

A new Children’s Emergency Unit has been built at QA Hospital. It provides great facilities and enables them to treat more children.

Working with other local Rotary Club’s we raised £9,600 to help the nursing team create a child friendly unit that helps to relax a child that are often scared and traumatised on possibly one of the worst days of their lives.

Nurses tell us that if they can relax a child by the artwork and toys it enables that child to be treated quicker and achieve better outcomes.

The artwork is now being installed so more pictures and details to come soon.

Our Christmas Santa Sleigh toured the area during December. Supported by an excellent team of volunteers, we were able to complete 11 evening runs in Hayling Island, Havant, Langstone, Leigh Park, Bedhampton, Denvilles and Emsworth.

We are well aware how much families enjoy seeing the sleigh and the children are so excited, it is a real community event. This year the Sleigh collections totalled £4156.63 which will be used to support local and International projects and charities.

Thank you all so much.

Easter Egg Project 25

This year we are again purchasing large Easter Eggs to donate to local charities, projects, food banks and schools. The charities use the eggs to raise fiunds by raffling the large eggs.

Last year with 84 eggs donated to our charities and projects we were delighted that together they raised £13,060.

The price of chocolate has risen dramatically in the last year and with a change of supplier the size of the eggs will be increasing to 2KG. However we have also managed to increase the number of eggs and charities that will benefit.
