In December 2022, our President Heather Graeme and her husband David visited the Rotary Club of Shepperton and Sunbury in the UK.
 

Her father was a Past President of the Rotary Club of Sunbury, and she spent much of her childhood attending Rotary events. They made them feel very welcome. Thank you to our Fellow Rotarians from the UK.
