National recognition for the local charity worker supporting Ukrainian refugees
A local charity worker has been recognised for his work in supporting Ukrainian refugees.
In 2022, Paul Nixon set up the Congleton Area Ukrainian Support Network (CAUSN) to help those who were fleeing the Russian invasion and arriving locally.
Paul was honoured by Rotary, the leading worldwide humanitarian organisation.
He received a framed certificate on Monday 17 June, signed by Eve Conway, Rotary International Director 2023-25 on behalf of the Rotary GB&I Board.
It states" Service Recognition Award presented to Paul Nixon in acknowledgement of special service."
Rotary Congleton's president-elect, Ian Robinson, presented the certificate and read a citation.
He said "I am proud to present Paul Nixon with an award – not from us in Congleton, but from Rotary Great Britain. This 'Service Recognition Award' is an acknowledgement of special humanitarian service. I think, in our recent history, it is the first time that we have been able to secure such a national award."
Ian concluded, "Paul Nixon, it is my great pleasure to present this Service Recognition Award to you on behalf of every Rotarian in Great Britain and Ireland."
