The Ely-Hereward Rotary Club donated a cheque worth £300 to Babylon Arts.

Held in January, the competition is open to students studying in East Cambridgeshire schools, with artwork from young people aged four to 18-years-old.
Prizes are sponsored by Tindalls and other local shops and businesses.
Caroline Cawley, gallery director, said: “We are very grateful to receive the donation.”
The Ely-Hereward Rotary Club’s weekly meetings are held at St Peter’s House, Broad Street, Ely, CB7 4BB, at 8pm on Wednesday evenings. Doors open at 7.30pm for tea, coffee, and a chance to chat.
