In
recent years, to mark the advanced stages of the
work of immunisation, a new name (End Polio Now) was
introduced, and a new symbol adopted, to draw
attention to the Cause and as a visual reminder of
the huge progress to date.
The
planting of deep, purple-coloured crocus corms, was
planned to bloom to coincide with World Rotary Day
on 24 March each year.
The
2023-24 Rotary Day at UNESCO will be held on 4 May
2024 in Paris, France, with a focus on education and
peace.

This year we planted crocus around "The Jubilee Oak Tree" planted in 2012 Why Purple? The
purple crocus is a symbol of Rotary’s worldwide campaign to
eradicate polio, with its colour representing The
dye (Gentian Violet) used to mark the left little finger of
a child who has been immunised.
A
lifesaving oral polio vaccine costs just 20p This year we planted crocus around "The Jubilee Oak Tree" planted in 2012 ------------------ oo ------------------
