Rotary clubs across Great Britain and Ireland have come up with lots of fun and innovative ways to raise awareness for Rotary’s polio eradication campaign and the latest project from the Rotary Club of Huntly in Aberdeenshire really is one for the sweet tooth.
The premier Purple4Polio Ice Cream was the brainchild of the Rotary Club of Huntly member Paul Robinson, and then ably supported by fellow members Stuart Wright and Philip Morrison who saw it as a great way to tie in with Rotary in Great Britain & Ireland’s Purple4Polio campaign.
Philip is a Director at James Rizza’s & Sons Ltd, an ice cream manufacturer based in Scotland, which created this tasty, blueberry flavoured treat which was launched in Northern Scotland in October 2016.
While the Purple4Polio ice cream is now available across the majority of Great Britain, it is not available in Ireland because Rizza’s do not have and Irish-based wholesaler.
