Sunday was a special day as the Rotary Club of Leighton Linslade celebrated the last 12 months under President Steve Bigrave and he in turn passed the baton onto incoming President Chris Roberts. The Club were able to congratulate Steve on his significant achievements whilst President which included five Bleed Kits placed at strategic points in the town, support for the town's very own mental health initiative Reclaim Life and most recently support for a PSA testing event.
A number of Rotarians were recognised at the annual hand over BBQ with long service awards and Rotarian Robin received the Paul Harris Award in recognition of his service to the club & community
Incoming President Chris said: “I am really looking forward to my year as president and taking forward a number of new initiatives including launching our ‘Friends of Rotary’ scheme and hopefully our new ‘Neighbourhood Defibrillator’ initiative.
"We have over 40 members now and are involved in a wide range of community projects. This and the social side of Rotary really makes for a great combination!”
