Thousands of Purple Crocus for Portsmouth

Our worldwide Polio Eradication Campaign is now hopefully in its last stages.  Rotary is planting millions of purple crocus, to remind supporters of the purple paint our teams apply to children's fingers when they have been inoculated.

Here our club are planting more than 2000 purple crocus in Commercial Road. All due to flower for "Thanks for Life" day - 23rd February.
