The Rotary Club of Humberside has raised more than £6,000 for three local charities with a concert held at Beverley Minster on Saturday May 9th.  The concert by the Black Dyke Band - currently the champion band in Britain - was a sell out with more than 800 people in the Minster.
 
Charities that will benefit from the profits will be the Dove House Hospice, the Daisy Appeal at the new unit for cancer patients at the Castle Hill Hospital and Jacobs Well in Beverley.

Ross Allenby, chairman of the Club's Major Events Committee said the concert had been a tremendous success. It was the first time the Club had attempted a venture on this scale and the first time Black Dyke had played in the Minster. 
 

Local Lincoln residents Kieran Brennan and Jordan Gledding were both runners up in the Junior Archery event, at the District 1270 Disability Games. 

As they were unable to receive their trophies on the day, Rotary District Governor Elect, Peter Manton, decided to make amends and visit their St Christopher’s School, North Hykeham, to present them with their trophies in front of their school colleagues and proud parents.

The duo came join second in their event against fierce competition at a full day of indoor games organised by Rotary District 1270 which takes in a huge area from Barnsley up to Hornsea down to Skegness and back to Lincoln.
