WELCOME TO OUR WEBSITE
Congleton Lions Club is a member of Lions International (District 105CN - British Isles) and is part of the largest service organisations in the World having 1.4 million members in over 200 geographical areas worldwide.
We were formed in 1975 and follow the moto of "We Serve" the local and further afield community. We are celebrating our 49th year of service to the people of Congleton and the wider community.
As members of a Lions Club we volunteer our time and skills to provide service to try and meet some of the needs that challenge communities. By doing this we enjoy the Fun and Friendship of serving the community at Local, National and International levels.
We are continuing with our current recruitment programme, seeking men and women who are interested, willing and able to give some of their time in helping others whilst having a great deal of fun and lively banter at the same time.
Many of the projects undertaken by Lions can be identified within five areas; Diabetes, Vision, Environment, Hunger and Childhood Cancer. However there are many more initiatives our clubs involve themselves in locally to give help and support where needed.
If you feel you may be interested in finding out a bit more about being a Lion, or finding out what we do, use the links below, speak to any Congleton Lion at one of our many activities locally or use the 'Contact us' page to get in touch.
Every penny that we raise goes directly to the charitable purposes that we are supporting. No money is taken out for administration of the club as members cover all administrative costs.
Congleton Lions are a registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) with the Charity Commission registered no. 1181543
All of the accounts are published every year on the Charity Commission website.
We are registered with the Information Commissioner Officer for GDPR Data Protection act 2018.

Lions clubs around the world work together expanding our community project work and inspiring others to join us in service.
Who are the Lions? Lions are an international network of 1.4 million men and women dedicated to making a difference locally and globally.
What do Lions do? Lions strive to meet the needs of our own community and the world, ranging from assisting the visually impaired and working with local youth to medical missions and disaster relief.
How are Lions relevant to today's world? Since 1917, Lions have met the needs in their communities and continued to try to improve the areas in which they live. As long as there are needs around the world, we will work to meet those needs.
How do I become a Lion? If you are interested in becoming a Lion, contact us (see the Contact us page) and express an interest in learning more.
Are there women Lions? Yes. Women are the single fastest growing segment of Lions.
I would like to volunteer in my community but why should I do so as a Lion? Lions endeavour to meet the needs of those in our own communities as well as around the world and we have fun doing it. Working together locally and internationally, the worldwide network of Lions has vastly more resources and is able to accomplish much more than individuals and small groups working alone.
