North Wales Rose Croix donates £7000 to Blood Bikes Wales.
A year ago we gave a talk on Blood Bikes Wales for Rhodri Fawr Chapter Rose Croix. The Inspector General of North Wales V.Ill Bro. John Norbury was present at that talk, and was so taken by the work done by Blood Bikes Wales he decided that for the following year he would ask the Chapters across North Wales to make a donation into a pot to be given to the charity.
This evening at the meeting of St. Deiniol’s Chapter the final amount raised was revealed. John presented Neville Owens with a “Big Cheque” for £6800.
V.Ill. Bro. Paul Kelvin-Smith the Inspector General for South Wales and Monmouthshire who had also been in attendance of last years talk, had travelled up for the presentation, and he presented us with a cheque for £200 to round up the final amount to £7000.
I would like to thank all the members of Rose Croix across North Wales for this fantastic donation.
