A Big Thank You From Rotherham Sitwell Rotary.
On 5th February we had the pleasure of welcoming representatives from our supported charities who received significant donations (approximately £6000 in total) from our Christmas collections — the ones you saw us doing outside Asda and around the streets of Rotherham.
It was a brilliant reminder of what a difference those doorstep donations and supermarket bucket drops really make. Here’s how your generosity has already helped:
Start a Heart 24:7 Start a Heart 24:7 – They’ve been able to install additional defibrillators across Rotherham, giving more communities lifesaving access when and where it matters most.
Rotherham Cancer Care Centre Rotherham Cancer Care – Your donations funded extra acupuncture sessions, helping more people manage pain, stress, and the side effects of treatment.
Andy’s Man Club Andy's Man Club Rotherham – The money went towards venue hire and refreshments, helping them keep their vital peer support sessions running.
Rotherham Families First Rotherham Families First – They used the donation to provide even more Christmas presents for local children who might otherwise have gone without.
Swinton Lock Activity Centre Swinton Lock Activity Centre – They’ve been able to offer additional support sessions for school age children who need a safe, encouraging space.
Every speaker shared just how much these contributions mean — and every penny came from the generosity of local people during our Christmas collections.
From all of us at Rotherham Sitwell Rotary: thank you. You helped make a real difference across our community.
