Shelter Box at The Gaffers

by chris.jarman on June 11, 2010

Members of the Rotary Club of West Wight were on duty over the 4th , 5th and 6th  June 2010 to man their stall at The Old gaffers Festival, Yarmouth.

This event has become a major attraction in the Isle of Wight calendar over the past few years and we would like to thank the Old Gaffers committee for allowing us to pitch our charity “SHELTERBOX” display on site so as to show all visitors how a donation to Rotary International Disasters Fund  could be used.
