An enjoyable afternoon for all involved

As in previous years, during each afternoon of the week of 12th August, the Rotary Club of Tonbridge funded cruises along the River Medway run by volunteers at the Kingfisher Medway Trust.

The organisations who went on these cruises were all locally based: The Scott’s Project Trust, Aspens, Slideaway, and the Tonbridge House Care Home in Quarry Hill.

These cruises are a wonderful opportunity for people being cared for by these organisations to enjoy an afternoon out on the River Medway.

Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their boat trip and expressed a desire to go again next year.
