Whittlesey & District Lions
A group of people dedicated to helping those less fortunate than ourselves.
How do we do it?
By raising funds at race nights, carol float, jumble sales etc. Money raised goes back into the community by way of medical equipment, aides for the disabled, parties for the elderly and handicapped, sponsoring youth projects. Our admin costs are met by membership. All money raised goes locally.
When do we meet?
The first Tuesday of the month 8pm. At the Falcon Hotel.
