MEMBERS of a group that tries to make a difference to the community and the world around them has announced dates for its major fundraising events across this year.
Pangbourne Rotary Club raises more than £25,000 every year for a variety of local, national and global worthy causes.
They range from individuals and groups in need, to disaster and emergency relief, and a long-standing campaign to help eradicate polio.
The club’s 2023 calendar starts with an art exhibition at Pangbourne Village Hall over the weekend of April 14-16.
The ever-popular dragon boat racing event, where teams take part in races on the river, will be held on Sunday, June 10 in Pangbourne Meadows.
Looking ahead to the festive season, Santa will be in his sleigh between December 4 and 23, visiting around 25 different locations and spreading some seasonal cheer.
And on Sunday, January 7 next year, the annual Woodcote 10k will return, again starting at Woodcote’s village hall.
Brian Davies, from the club, said: “We look forward to seeing you there and thank you for your generous support.”
