 The newly opened Rotary Youth Centre located within the East Stand of Craven Park home of Hull Kingston Rovers will be equipped with much needed media equipment thanks to Rotarian Graham Horrell and his two colleagues Carl Bennett and Glyn Hughes.
The three men who are employed by global energy company PSN located at The Deep Business Centre won the Integrity category of the 2009 PSN Core Value Awards for which they receive £1000 to donate to a charity of their choice. Graham Horrell explains "As a member of District 1270 Flood Relief Task Force, I was actively involved in the construction of the Rotary Youth Centre which is providing such a valuable resource to the young people who live in East Hull. I was so pleased when my colleagues agreed that our donation should be given to the Hull KR Education and Sport Trust and even more delighted that our donation has been boosted by local Company Procom as this means the club gets the media presentation equipment it needs". |
