The Rotary Clubs of Fareham & Fareham Meon today placed commemorative plaques at the base of trees planted for their special anniversaries last year in the Borough. Charters were granted for the Rotary Club of Fareham (75 years ago) and Fareham Meon (40 years) at the inauguration of the two Clubs in the town that have consistently provided outstanding community service in the area and internationally.

The trees (Hornbeam for the Rotary Club of Fareham and Beech for the Rotary Club of Fareham Meon) were planted by the two Presidents in January this year. They are situated in Park Lane Recreation Ground near to Fareham Leisure Centre and will be nurtured by the Borough Council horticultural team throughout the seasons.

Immediate Past President of the Rotary Club of Fareham, Norman Chapman, said “This hornbeam tree is a living demonstration of our Club’s support for the environment and wildlife in the town.” This was echoed by Immediate Past President of the Rotary Club of Fareham Meon, Len Bamber, who said “I am honoured that our Club has been able to contribute to the beautiful beech trees in Fareham.” At the tree plaque placement was Councillor & Rotarian Pamela Bryant (who was Mayor of the Borough of Fareham at the time of the anniversaries), together with the current President of the Rotary Club of Fareham Pam Marsden.

Since ancient days the beech and hornbeam trees have symbolised life, growth and wisdom. It is hoped these special trees will continue to thrive in the Borough to shade and shelter people in the town for years to come.
