Santa Tour 2021 has now concluded. For full details of how to donate see the Santa page

Among many other local charities we are supporting For the Love of Scrubs:

Kiwanis’ donation will provide much needed material for 200 sets of scrubs in the local area.

Miriam Spring Davies, founder of For the Love of Scrubs Stamford, Lincs/Rutland, said, “We want to say a huge thank you for the generosity of Stamford Kiwanis, for choosing to support our group. This donation from within our local community will go a long way in supporting our wonderful group of volunteers, we could not be more grateful.”

David Epps, President of Stamford Kiwanis, said "For Love of Scrubs Stamford, Lincs/Rutland is a remarkable example of a small group of caring individuals who mobilise an army of sewing volunteers to provide essential scrubs, hats, bags and headbands to support our doctors, nurses and carers during this awful coronavirus pandemic. Our donation will provide vital material, but it is also a recognition for all the local volunteers sewing to support our front- line carers."

Kiwanis were founded in the USA. In the American Indian language ‘Nunc Kee-wanis’ means ‘we trade’ or ‘we share talents’. The organisation has 600.000 members, mostly in USA and Europe. There are 10 clubs in the UK. Stamford Kiwanis currently have little contact with the International arm.

Our events bring people together and everyone has some fun and through these events Stamford and District Kiwanis raise £10-15,000 each year.
