One day in November 2008 three bears set off on a long journey from Scotland to Ghana. When they arrived, one of them, a special breed of Rotarian bear, was adopted by a girl called Josephine who is studying at St Peter's Secondary School in Accra thanks to a charity called Let Us Shine.  .

Absolute perfect weather conditions were to the fore for this years walk plus we had the higest number of teams entered for the walk

In early 2006, after spending over a year working in a children's school in Ghana, Fiona Marra, a pharmacist
from East Kilbride, came home and decided she wanted to devote her time to helping young children in Ghana.

The attached history is an attempt to record the success of our Twinning Link with the Rotary Club of Ballerup in Denmark I

Group Study Exchange is encouraged and promoted by
Rotary International and East kilbride Rotary have been involved over many years
Promoting these ideals

Storm conditions in no way dampened the spirits of the 23 groups of Walkers, Runners, Hoppers, Pram Pushers, Fancy Dressed walkers and most importantly Cancer Survivors who gathered at the John Wright Sports centre to take part in the twenty Four Hour walk to raise cash for Cancer Research (UK) Scotland.
