Our Link to Romania

Rose, in her deputation debut for Link Romania

Saturday, Rose was a bundle of nerves as she prepared to speak to an intimidating band of Durrington seniors, at a fund-raising event for Link Romania, where she works. The event was a quiz afternoon, which raised just more than £300 for helping the poor in Romania. Rose is also getting ready for a working trip to Romania next month.

Action Man Andy Absails for Children's Hospital

Andy Gibb starts his 31 story descent for charity

Rose's brother Andy lost his right leg (many years after a motorcycle accident in his teens and many painful surgeries over the years) a couple of years back, and recently abseiled down a 31 story building in Perth, Australia. I get giddy just looking at the picture, but Andy went over the top and all the way down, raising $1500 for a Children's Hospital. Good on you, mate!
