A City In Lights

It was great to be back with the Sleigh at the switch on of the Tettenhall Christmas lights last night and there was a great turn out to see Santa.

Tonight sees the switch on of the Christmas lights at Bantock House and we'll be there with Santa from 4:30 to see the Lights switched on at 6:30

Santa's covid elf and safety precautions mean that it won't be possible for children visiting him to sit on the Sleigh this year but we're making sure that there is still be a chance for you to take a photo with Santa.

It's Time for Santa and his Sleigh

The Tettenhall Rotary Santa Sleigh will be at the switch on of the Tettenhall Christmas lights from 4:30 this evening but Santa's covid elf and safety precautions mean that it won't be possible for children visiting him to sit on the Sleigh this year.

Don't worry though there will still be a chance for you to take a photo with Santa.

World Polio Day

Today is World Polio Day. Polio is a serious viral infection with no cure that causes temporary or permanent paralysis, which can be life threatening. 

Polio invades the nervous system and can cause total paralysis in a matter of hours. It can strike at any age but affects mainly children under 5. Before a vaccine was introduced in the 1950s epidemics would result in up to 7760 cases of paralytic polio in the UK each year with up to 750 deaths.

Rotary Clubs around the world have been working to eradicate polio for more than 35 years and over that time we’ve managed to reduce polio cases by 99.9%. Rotary members have contributed more than $2.1 billion and countless volunteer hours to protect nearly 3 billion children in 122 countries from this paralyzing disease. Rotary’s advocacy efforts have played a role in decisions by governments and the Gates Foundation to contribute billions more to the effort.

Today polio remains endemic only in Afghanistan and Pakistan and with your help  a polio-free world is possible. Join with Rotary this World Polio Day to End Polio Now: endpol.io/wpd
