KEIGHLEY Rotarians are supporting efforts to help victims of famine and drought.

They staged a collection at the town’s Morrisons supermarket.

The event raised £281 for the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC), to provide relief from famine and crises in East Africa and Yemen.

A Rotary spokesman said: “Customers gave extremely generously and we would like to thank them and Morrisons for its support.”

The DEC says drought and conflict has left 19 million people in urgent need of food, water and medical treatment.
