Rotarian Melanie Hughes said: “We are honoured to be receiving this award. Our members try very hard to help and support the community, but if it wasn’t for the community the club couldn’t do what it does.
“So really, the club is receiving this award on behalf of the community that comes and supports all the events and activities we do, so thank you, people of Rotherham, we hope you feel we are making a difference too.”
