2020 saw many individuals take up a challenge for WheelPower and raise much needed funds for the charity, in what has been a very difficult year. If like Emma & Sam you are interested in taking on a challenge in 2021, then we would love to hear from you 🙌 #WheelPower2020

🎉 HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎉
2020 may not have been the year we expected, but Rotary clubs continued to serve their communities and fundraise for charities.
Together, we can continue to transform lives and make a difference to communities around the world in 2021!
