Earlier this year, a whopping £17,000 was raised at the Annual Shanklin Rotary Sale.
Rachel Wadia, on behalf of the Rotary, has been in touch with news that several Isle of Wight organisations have already benefitted from the funds collected from the Shanklin January Sale.
She told News OnTheWight,
“We were proud to present two cheques recently to the Shanklin Rowing Club and the Shanklin Rugby Club.
