Members gathered at the Wyevale Garden Centres at Hare Hatch and Winnersh, as well as the Asda in Lower Earley and Henry Street Garden Centre.
Rotarian Scott Trathen, organiser of the Christmas fundraising said: “The excitement and enjoyment of children on their visits to Father Christmas was a delight to see and we thank the public for their very generous donations.”
