  • How many people are there in a Lions Club ?

Usually between 15 and 35, although Clubs do vary. Oswestry currently has 7 members, but with some Lions moving on each year it is essential to replace them. We actively seek new members.

  • What about my family ?

 We work on the principle that partners and family may support all fund raising activities and socials. You and your family will be welcome to our Lions community in Oswestry.

  • Is Lions just fund raising ?

Certainly not. We have a variety of community service activities e.g. supporting youth, the elderly, those with disabilities and health. Did you know that Lions International raised $135m with the intention of eradicating preventable blindness throughout the world ?

  •  How much time will I have to commit to Lions ?

 The commitment is only what  you choose to make it. We find, as with most things in life, the more you can put in, the more you will get out.

  •  How can I find out whether I would enjoy Lions ?

 Contact us via the "Contact Us" page. We will tell you more about OswestryLions, answer any further questions you may have, and invite you to a social event or Club meeting.

Is it a Charity ?

Yes we are registered with the Charities Commission ( Registration No 1123785 ). This means we keep our fund raising strictly separate from our membership and administration costs, which we pay for through subscriptions.

  • Is it expensive ?

Our annual membership subscription is only £80, in other words just over £1.50 per week, payable twice a year--July and January. A family joint membership is £60 per year.

  • Do I have to be a professional person to join Lions ?

No. Lions welcome everyone from all backgrounds and walks of life, male or female, whether you are working or retired, providing you share in our objectives - to serve the local community.
