The Rotary Club of Hull is pleased to confirm that the 2008 Humber Half Marathon and Family Fun Run on Sunday 29 June will be in aid of the Marie Curie Nursing Service charity in Hull, East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire.
Cheryl Barrett – Community Fundraising Manager of Marie Curie Cancer Care in North & East Yorkshire said " I am simply delighted that the Rotary Club of Hull have chosen to support the local Marie Curie Nursing Service with next year’s Humber Half Marathon; this means such a great deal to us. In 2008, we celebrate 60 years of caring for cancer patients and hope that local folk will get behind the run to rejoice with us during our diamond anniversary, making it the best Humber Half-Marathon ever. Every night can be a marathon for cancer patients and their families – your support will enable more local folk who are terminally ill with cancer to be cared for by Marie Curie Nurses in the comfortable and familiar surroundings of their own home." |

More funding from the national Rotary Flood Disaster Appeal has been announced. The Rotary Appeal raised over £300,000 and this has been augmented by a further £600,000 raised by Naomi Campbell’s Fashion for Relief fashion show. The Rotary Club of Doncaster St Leger has already secured £7,500 to restore the destroyed play area at Toll Bar Primary School from the Appeal Fund and has now been awarded a further £25,000 to replace the ‘green’ greenhouse, allotment and other growing areas destroyed by the floods with an environmental project which will extend the original concept to include a wetland area and other discrete spaces to develop the excitement of growing – areas being researched include poetry/sculpture garden areas with possible woodland elements and an evolutionary garden. This would bring a series of cross-curriculum endeavour together from science, design and technology through to geography and even citizenship. |
