Bexhill Rotary donates £4,500 to local cancer relief charities

Bexhill Rotary has supported three local charities with a gift of £1,500 each from its autumn lunch event in October.

Organiser John Cooper said: “We had chosen three worthy health support charities to be the beneficiaries of this fundraiser, Macmillan(South East), St Michael's Hospice and Sara Lee Trust. We had hoped to raise £3,000 and were delighted when the final figure was £4,500.

“On the 17th December, we were able to meet with Barry Edwards of Macmillan Cancer Support, Cathy Cobley, from Sara Lee Trust and Rebecca Futrall of St Michael Hospice and present each with a cheque for £1,500 towards their work in the local area.”

President David Dixson said "Bay House Care had generously hosted and paid for our Autumn Lunch on 5th October and we are now happy to pass these cheques onto the causes we were sponsoring."

Cathy Cobley of Sara Lee Trust said “Thank you so much for your incredible support.”

John added: “Bexhill Rotary has raised over £11,000 since June 2025 which we are happy to use to support local charities and organisations. Thank you everybody for your support of our projects.”
