The ROTARY BUZZ

Rotary Club of Cheltenham

Monthly Newsletter April 2022

Connecting Communities Open Evening.

With thirty-six guests in attendance representing

ten local charities that received financial support from the Club, together with local business people.

Each of the charities supplied a short video, giving us the opportunity of leaning more about their charity and how our funds would be spent, for the benefit of the local Community.

A Paul Harris Fellowship was presented to Sarah Avery of ‘Family Space’, in recognition of the exceptional service to the local Community. Sarah is the manager of this local charity giving support to young families.

During COVID lockdown Sarah formed ‘FeedCheltenham’ and raised over £100,000.

Our Speaker Meeting with member Mike Phillips giving a Presentation on:

Perspective in art: three mysteries

Mike investigated the development of perspective in western European art and explored three questions or mysteries about the development and its timing from the point of view of people who appreciate art but are not artists. The talk was illustrated with numerous examples and paintings.
