How we serve our community

The guiding principle behind the Lions is 'We Serve'.

Serving our community - whether local national or international - is more than just donating to good causes. Of course, that is one of the primary ways in which we serve our community and, during 2021, despite difficulties with fund-raising due to Covid-19, we have helped the following:
  • Southwell Rugby Club Juniors
  • Literacy Volunteers
  • Southwell Brownies
  • Marie Curie 
  • Sherwood Forest Hospitals Charity
  • Jonathan's Voice
  • Minster Junior School
  • Bethlehem Lions Christmas Appeal
  • Nottingham Hospitals Charity
  • REACH
  • MHA Live at Home
  • Southwell First Aiders, to install another defibrillator
  • Brain Tumour Research
  • Sight Savers
  • WaterAid
  • MedicAlert

Helping our neighbours
Very often, it's not a donation that's needed, it's a helping hand - and the Lions are always willing to provide that service. Among the many ways that we have served our community this year are:
  • Litter picks in Southwell and Farnsfield
  • Replanting and maintaining the planters on roads into Southwell
  • Volunteering at Newark Vaccination Centre
  • Spectacle recycling with Police Aid Convoys
