Thanks to everyone who has supported this momentous and ground breaking appeal, over 50% of clubs in District 1270 and many throughout the country have now "Passed the Hat", if your club hasn’t then get passing and help 1270 to make a clean sweep. This invitation to "Pass the Hat for Huntley, Pay a Pound for Peace" is also extended to Rotarians and friends throughout the world.

If you’re not up to date with what’s going on then let’s remind you - Bill was a member of the Rotary Club of Alford and Mablethorpe and died suddenly in February 2006; In 1994/1995 he became only the fourth Rotarian from these shores to achieve the Presidency of Rotary International. Considered one of the finest Rotarians to hold this post Bill started a "Pooled Fund" during his year as RI President in hopes of gathering sufficient funds to provide a scholarship in his name and commenced with a personal donation from his own modest means.
