 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". |

 Brief Details:
The Bill Huntley Endowment Appeal has been identified by RIBI President David and the 2009/2010 General Council has agreed to it being one of their main Foundation targets. The World Peace Symposium At the World Peace Symposium for three days before the 100th Rotary International Convention Bill's Endowment was the only external funding opportunity displayed during the event, the highlight of which was the address by Archbishop Emeritus and Nobel Laureate Desmond Tutu; Archbishop Desmond went on to sign a tribute to Bill, a document which it is hoped will further the Endowment's aims. The 100th Rotary International Convention During the 100th Convention the Endowment was a key feature of the RIBI display in the Hall of Friendship and attracted considerable interest throughout. The Alford & Mablethorpe contingent joined Audrey Huntley (centre standing) at a tea party organised by the spouses of every RI President present. |
