Community services - Lions fact: Lions helped form Guide Dogs for the Blind


Apart from the fund raisers aimed at specific charities, we try to help out local good causes plus children and senior citizens. Below are some of the events we fund or assist with either financially or with our time:



WOOF WALK

Come and join us for a stroll around Walton Hall


Bring your favourite 4-legged friend/s at Walton Hall on Sunday 8th October 11am to 3pm.



FREE EVENT

Coronation Tea

Wellesbourne & District Lions invited you to a Free Event at the Sports Centre.

A lot of people turned up and had a good afternoon. Even the weather was good to us.

Here are a few photos of the event.







On-Going Projects

Recycling Spectacles and Hearing Aids

Pharmacies In Wellesbourne and Kineton have bins to collect unwanted spectacles and hearing aids. These are then forwarded to Lions HQ in Birmingham where they are checked and classified before being sent to Third World Countries via Lions Clubs International.




Support During April 2022

Litter Picking - June 2022

This month we completed another litter pick, this time along the Wellesbourne by-pass, nine bags of rubbish were collected. Just a small contribution to improving the environment.

Sponsoring Junior Cricketers

We are proud to be sponsoring this year’s team caps for Wellesbourne Cricket Club Juniors. Our meetings are now being held at the Cricket Club pavilion and this is our way of showing our appreciation for being made so welcome.

Riding for the Disabled

We are sponsoring an 8 year old child with cerebral palsy so that they can enjoy another 12 months of riding with RDA.


Lions are always keen to help groups working with young people, please get in touch if you think we can help your group in some way using the “Contact Us” link at the bottom of the page.

Do look out for our bright yellow jerseys and blue gazebos at an event in your community over the summer months - come and have a chat to find out more about what we do.

If you would like to make a donation to the club to support our activities while we are unable to collect from you directly then we would be happy to receive a donation on our Just Giving page.

We have been helping out at Hastings House Medical Centre by supplying our Gazebos to shelter people from the weather during the Flu Jabs.

Below is a picture showing a Gazebo and staff at Hastings House.


In addition to these special events, we regularly contribute to worthy local causes e.g. Scouting, Guiding, Medic Alert, certain personal hardships, school projects, disabled peoples projects, pre-schools etc. etc.
