On the 15th July 2004 Castlebar Rotary supported Michael Clancy's tractor drive from Birmingham to Mayo in support of Mayo Roscommon Hospice and the National Association of Children's Hospices. The Rotary Club teams up with the Cardiology Dept of Mayo General Hospital in Dunnes Stores Car Park. Free blood pressure tests and information about the dangers of strokes and how to avoid them. Our Christmas Toy Appeal provides toys for children who are not as lucky as most. Always a highly successful event in association with the Castlebar St. Vincent De Paul Society.
