What We Do

 

Visit any of the 46000 Lions Clubs around the world and you are likely to find 3 key areas af activity - fundraising, supporting good causes and community projects - plus 2 essential ingredients in the form of friendship and fun. Lions clubs are essentially groups of friends who enjoy working together to improve their communities and the lives of the people who live there.So, if you've recently moved to the area and you're looking to make new friends or if you just fancy getting more involved with your community through a varied programme of volunteering, we'd love to talk to you. You can find more information about  the options for joining us HERE

If you would like to learn more about Lions and what we do in our communities please click here to read our Lions Get Involved booklet. It provides an excellent picture of the contribution that we make and the activities that you could be involved in as a Lions member.

Each year, Lions clubs make an enormous positive impact on the lives and life chances of millions of people in communities across the world. Our 1.35 million members, who perform community service in 210 countries and geographic areas, are different in many ways but share a core belief that our community  is what  we  make it.

Club members take great pride in the part they play in this, both locally and further afield, but we also know that this is possible only with the extraordinary help and support that we receive from our many friends within the local community.
