The Rotarians pledged that if the organisations entered teams in the club's Community Charity Walk in June there would be further grant aid available.

Some 365 walkers raised between 20,000 and 25,000 for their chosen causes by taking part in the community walk during the presidency of Rotarian Ray Dixon.

The Rotary wishing well on West Parade was the setting on Wednesday evening as, in his first official duty since taking office, new club president Rotarian John Meadows presented cheques to representatives of the 1066 Specials football, the Air Training Corps, Scouts and Guides.

Event organiser, Rotary club secretary Rotarian Roger Heyes, was master of ceremonies as Pilot Officer Andy Izzard received 100 for squadron funds on behalf of No. 2262 (Bexhill Squadron), Air Training Corps. Cadets stood to attention as the presentation was made.

Club chairman Mike Costello received the cheque on behalf of the 1066 Specials football club; Commissioner Carol Crerie on behalf of Bexhill's Guides and Janice Gammon, Group Scout Leader of the 9th Bexhill, on behalf of Senlac Scout District.
