You will recall during their Club visits Past District Governor Peter Maxwell and Mary, initiated a project for Clubs in District 9930 to collaborate with their local Rural Support Trusts with “pop up BBQs” as part of their support for the farming community.
The Trusts provide free and confidential assistance to farmers and growers facing challenges; climate, financial or personal. They are well-placed to point people in the right direction for further advice and help. Mental wellbeing is an area where the Trust gives invaluable support to Farmers and Growers.
District 9930 has had a growing relationship with the Rural Support Trust over many years. The time has come were the District now needs someone to act as the “link person” who can act as a “go-between” liaising with the Trust and exploring how and where Clubs can help the Trust with their invaluable work across the primary sector.
If this is a role that you would be interested in – please contact District Governor-Elect Ross Pinkham rossnzrotary@gmail.com
