The Rotary Club of Carlton has thanked the community for their generosity after raising almost £7,000 for good causes with their Santa Sleigh
The cash from Santa’s sleigh collections will now be used to support community projects, charities and those most in need in predominately the Carlton, Gedling and Netherfield areas.
Members of Carlton Rotary and volunteers also worked throughout December on both mobile sleigh routes and at local supermarkets. The response from the public was overwhelmingly positive, particularly from children who loved to meet Santa and Rudolph. The funds raised will help make a real difference, supporting initiatives that improve wellbeing, reduce hardship, and strengthen community connections.
A spokesman for teh club said: “Carlton Rotary would like to offer a heartfelt thank you to everyone who donated, volunteered, or showed support in other ways.
“Every contribution, whether large or small, played an important part in reaching this impressive total and made the fundraising effort such a success.
“The club is proud to serve the community and is deeply grateful for the generosity shown.
“This achievement highlights what can be accomplished when a community works together with kindness and shared purpose.”
