A recent collaborative effort between Annan Rotarian Jim Ferguson and Eastwood Rotary member Rob Wilkinson resulted in a significant fundraising success. The duo, along with other Eastwood Rotary members, orchestrated an event that raised an impressive sum of £1,200, inclusive of Gift Aid. The proceeds were equally divided between two deserving charities, Eastwood Rotary and Guide Dogs for the Blind, each receiving 50% of the total amount.

Accompanied by their Guide Dogs, Yozi and Jumble, they became the highlight of the event, captivating both children and parents alike. The presence of these hardworking and endearing Guide Dogs elicited excitement and admiration from attendees.
