On Tuesday 25th January 2022, the Rotary Club of Croydon received a visit from the Mayor of Croydon, Sherwan Chowdhury at their lunchtime meeting in West Croydon.

Mayor Sherwan was delighted to meet with Rotary members and said ‘I am here today to thank you all personally for the work you have done throughout the pandemic to help the citizens of Croydon who need it’. In particular he wanted to thank them for their charitable work throughout with Crisis Skylight project which gives invaluable help to street homeless people in Croydon all year round. He continued, ‘You can tell the nature of a place by the way it reacts to emergencies. Voluntary organisations like the Rotary add so much to local life’.

President Oumesh says that the visit from the Mayor was a great start to Croydon Rotary’s centenary year and he hopes that 2022 will be less of a challenging year, so that Rotarians can get back to what they do best, supporting local and international communities.
