Malaria Impact Compared to COVID
PP PHF Gloria Hargreaves would like to share this below visualisation with the club.
Peter Hitchener would like to say hello and offer you an invitation, by asking if you would like to subscribe to a weekly "TinyLetter" from him on his website.
"TinyLetter" is written by Peter about what's going on each week and he would be delighted if you would like to join him and be part of the conversation. Peter will be writing about the things that matter most to him, our community, arts, sports, charities and good causes. The discussion topics could be anything from your best Zoom meeting, to your best ever holiday memory, to the lunchbox favourites from when you were growing up. Should be fun!
We are regularly asked to share information on other Rotary Club or community group events. Rather than list all of them in Sparkle, please check out them out HERE
