Past President of the City of Wolverhampton club Richard Green has just returned from a 2 week trip to India on behalf of Rotary, where he visited 16 clubs. He also attended the Conference of District 3201 at which he was given an honorary welcome by the 2200 delegates, and held a number of meetings to prepare for several future humanitarian projects to be funded by the Rotary Foundation in partnership with various clubs in Great Britain and Ireland. These will include 3 mega Jaipur Limb camps for amputees, checkdams to assist farmers with irrigation,a dialysis centre, a mobile health clinic and the provision of sewing machines for 40 ladies who have just completed a sewing course arranged by the local club, Pavagada, District 3190.

On his visit to the Rotary Club of Changanacherry, District 3211 in Kerala, he was very pleased to receive a Rotary Service Award certificate which recognises the support sent by the City of Wolverhampton club during the pandemic in the form of a number of oxygen concentrators and BiPap machines enabling Covid sufferers to breathe.

At the conclusion of a meeting with the Rotary club of Quilon, District 3211, Richard was surprised and delighted to receive a personal Rotary Excellence Award in recognition of the support and guidance he is giving to the club as they draw up their plans to hold a mega Jaipur Limb camp.
