@RotaryIWT enjoyed another January curry day, a great way to bring friends together for superb food. Thank you Peebles Rotary for joining us. A taste of India in Innerleithen for a purpose. What's not to like!
Lack of lighting impacts Thondwe children’s learning, it’s difficult to study after dark. A @SolarAid light provides about an hour of reading.
@RotaryIWT is trialing a system managed by the librarian who rents out the lights to learners for a few pence.
KIT cleanup crew are on it. Two pals collected over 30kg of waste in their 1st outing! We plan a weekly cleanup on Wednesday’s so let us know if any areas need special attention.
