Chester-le-Street Rotary Club

On behalf of the Rotary Club of Chester le Street I would like to thank JAK HQ and especially Val, for their skill and professionalism over the years. Recently this has culminated in helping to spread the importance of our campaign to End Polio Now to the local community. A big thank you, from John Stewart (President).

Everywhere I go I stumble upon Rotary meetings.

A massive thank you, from all that attended today, to Honorary Chester-le-Street Rotary member, Lord Joicey, for his fantastic hospitality today.

The Ford & Etal Estates are a fantastic place to visit and obviously under very knowledgeable and dedicated management. 👏👏
