 The Lindum Rotary Club has teamed up with District and County Councillor Cllr Marianne Overton and North Kesteven District Council to trial an exciting initiative reusing waste sawdust and shavings to reduce fuel poverty in the Cliff Villages.
“This is the start of something really big as the idea could well be taken up by North Kesteven and parts of Lincolnshire. This helps the environment and helps to reduce fuel poverty. Many of our villages do not have gas and many people rely on coal stoves. This project reuses a waste product to help reduce heating bills.” “Lindum Rotary Club has a superb record of achievement in encouraging environmental responsibility with their successful annual Lincolnshire Environmental Awards, judged by David Bellamy. This new initiative is a bold step further, leading from the front in partnership with a sustainable commercial enterprise EH Thorne (Beehives)Ltd, to reuse waste and help others.” |

Through District 1270's Flood Relief Task Force, the 8 Rotary Clubs of Hull and East Riding have successfully secured £115,000 from the RIBI (Rotary International in Great Britain and Ireland) flood funds to create the Youth Centre. The bid was submitted in partnership with Hull KR who have donated the area under the stand and The Hull KR Education and Sports Trust who will be responsible for the day-to-day management of the centre. In giving his support to the project, John Prescott MP stated “I am extremely pleased that the Rotary Clubs of Hull & East Riding have chosen to make this generous contribution to build a youth club under the East stand at Craven Park. This is a fantastic example of how Rovers, the Rotary and the community are coming together to help the young people of Hull.” |
