Probus groups support School Aid India

Helen gave talks called ' A Memsahib in Sikkim' and ' A School in the Himalayas' to the Middlesbrough Probus group and the Bedale Probus group one on 23 September and the other on 07 October. Both talks were extremely well received and School Aid India benefitted from very generous donations. A big thank you to both groups for being so supportive.
