Independent Domestic Abuse Service (aka Barnsley Women's Refuge).

International
-
Ghana. We are particularly proud of our productive relationship with Ghana Outlook (a UK based charity) which has achieved a great deal in relation to providing clean water and innovative start up projects led by local communities which have gone on to be self-sustaining. Ghana Outlook works with Accra Airport Rotary Club and Sahara Advocates for Change to identify, prioritise and implement appropriate projects. This year, we supported the provision of another Water Borehole in Cogongtel in the Wa West Region of Ghana.
-
Ukraine. The continued conflict in Ukraine has been a focus of our attention over the last year and we have been pleased to be able to support a fellow Rotarian from Rotary Adventurers with his remarkable humanitarian aid work under the banner of Huddersfield to Ukraine. We donated 2 x £600 to buy essential supplies and fund the ongoing cost of providing this aid.
