Local DJ Jim Henderson – aka DJ Edinburgh – handed over a cheque for £900 to Drylaw Rainbow Club Day Centre’s Jacke Brown yesterday.
Jim staged a ‘Live Aid 2020’ event last month to support the Rainbow Club, who are part of an area-wide network of local organisations who are supporting our community’s most vulnerable people with food parcels and essential supplies during the coronavirus pandemic.
Feed The World Drylaw Telford! Well done, Jim!
Christmas lunch and company
Drylaw’s Rainbow Club Day Centre celebrated their thirtieth anniversary with a Las Vegas-themed party last week – and you can bet everyone had a great time!
When it was first established in Drylaw Church in 1985 the Rainbow Club offered lunchtime sessions and companionship to older people. Since then, the organisation grown and developed – overcoming many challenges along the way – and remains an important part of community life in Drylaw and the wider North Edinburgh community.
Manager Jackie Brown has been at the helm throughout, and as ever Jackie, the staff and volunteers put on a great party for guests and members on 17 June.
As The King himself might have said: Viva, Las Rainbow!
