£1,000 Donation to Marple Youth Project
The club made the decision to support the Marple Youth Project by donating £1,000 to help ensure a stable long-term plan. This project aims to help restore the health and well-being of young people through communication and creating a sense of belonging. A donation of £335 was also made to St. Ann's Hospice and one of £914.21 to Marple Scouts.

Rotary Club Meetings
We resumed face to face meetings at Mellor and Townscliffe Golf Club at the beginning of July and it was good to meet up with members again after so long.
Nicola Patterson came to give us a most enlightening talk about the intricacies of being an Air Traffic Controller. How many of us consider the planning that goes on in the background by the Controllers to ensure our safety both in the air and around the airport. We all take it for granted that we will arrive at our destination safely. It’s obviously a very stressful job and the Controllers should be applauded for their care of passengers and crew.
