This year, as they have done for many years, Calverley Rotary Club will again distribute Christmas lunches to elderly people living on their own on Christmas Day.
The Rotary Club have a database of names of people who had meals last year, but others may qualify.
The residents must live in Calverley, Farsley, Rodley, Bramley, Pudsey and Swinnow to qualify. If any social worker or community groups know of people who qualify and require a meal they can contact the secretary j_m_procter@hotmail.com.
Thanks to a team of volunteers at Calverley Golf Club who prepare the meals and to around 50 volunteer drivers, volunteers will ensure that people are provided with a full Christmas Day dinner, a small gift and a card.
The drivers are given addresses to deliver when they arrive at Calverley Golf Club.
Last year volunteers distributed around 180 of these meals and everyone was so grateful.
Recipient Raymond Raymond Fowler said: “Thank you to the good people of Calverley Rotary Club for the nice Christmas dinner, and thank you to the nice friendly couple who delivered it, thanks from Raymond.”
