In support of the revitalisation of a patio area at Stoke Mandeville Stadium, the Club donated a new round table, made from recycled plastic for long life and limited maintenance requirement.  It is large enough for 4 wheelchairs.

The Club has had a long standing support programme with Wheelpower  and was there on a visit with District 1260 representatives end June.

Students from St Michael’s Roman Catholic School, Aylesbury, entered the Rotary Young Artist competition 2024, supported by the Headteacher, Mr Adam Palmer, the Art Teacher, Mrs Josie Whitfield, and Club President Peter Linford.

The theme for the artwork was Rebuilding, and each student was asked to provide a short talk about their artwork. The judging, on behalf of our Rotary Club, was undertaken by Prof. Ian Brooks, https://www.inkwyrm.com/.  The winning entry is entitled “Under Construction”, the judge said: A really thoughtful piece with a strong idea behind it. Love the bits of brain all doing different things.

The artist used pencil to create texture of the head and pen to exaggerate the meaning of building good mental health.  The entry went into the District 1260 final where it won the Young Artist award.
