Basingstoke Deane Rotary continues to support the work that other local charities and local groups do to improve the lives of people living in the borough. That support may be financial, by hands on support or just by raising the their profile by publicising the good work that they are doing for our community. This month we are highlighting The Pink Place together with the Blue Space. Also the good fundraising The Ark Riders have done for The Ark Cancer Centre charity and are this year doing for The Camrose Centre for the Homeless and the vulnerably housed.
