At the first meeting of Sherwood Forest Rotary Club since the pandemic started, Paul Prudence was presented with the club’s Robin Hood Award.
Paul has been a prominent member of the community throughout the pandemic and was nominated for his commitment to keeping many areas of the community litter free.
Paul and his wife, Michelle, were guests of the club at Ollerton House, where the award and a citation were presented to him in the presence of members of Sherwood Rotary and their guests.
In September the club began meeting together as a group once again. Its annual programme of events has changed somewhat, but it will continue to publish a regular report to keep everyone informed.

The club’s sponsored bike ride in aid of Prostate Cancer has now finished and the final total raised is in excess of £4,500.

“We also extend our thanks to all those who took part or donated to this important charity.
