The ANNS of the Algoa Bay Rotary Club have been very busy with their projects. Many people are thought about as they spread happiness and comfort with their incredible dedication and hard work!

Two functions which took place recently were a tea which was held at the ACVV in Kensington. This project was adopted by the Annas some time ago and food parcels are handed out to residents from time to time.

The Priory Interact Club assisted them at this tea, where they also sang to the residents, and made a generous cash donation to the Home. They have also worked with Herbert Hurd Earlyact Club on this project and have been astounded at their contribution. Rotarian, Colin Fox,is very generous in his support and assists themwith many donations of food.

The Clothing Guild, run by PE South Anns, recently held their annual handover tea where the Anns knitted  items of clothing which were distributed to various charities.

The Anns’ Club’s knitting project is a vibrant part of our outreach to the community. They have a number of volunteer knitters who assist us in making a difference. Their contribution to the Clothing Guild over the past five months was over 200 items, all lovingly and caringly knitted.

Knitters Tea at Dunant Lodge

On the 7 April 2009, the Anns held a ‘Thank You’ tea at Dunant Lodge for some of the many dedicated knitters. An amazing amount of handiwork is produced every year by these special folk. Many people are fortunate to be the receipients of their lovely handiwork. There are 12 people belonging to the Knitter Natter Group. One of the founder members , Joy Henderson - now aged 97 is still actively invloved. Adele Allen is also very involved although she says she does most of the nattering!
