Well, here we are again; it's time to start another Lions year. My name is Martin Drake, and I am your President for the third time for the coming Lions year, which starts from July 2025 to June 2026.
This is the Club's 37th year, and we have many planned activities to raise funds and enjoy good social times together. Before we start this year, let's look back at what a super year June Sheldrake has given us in the last 12 months.
First of all, we have been able to donate over £ 13,777 to many Charities and worthy causes by collecting from outside shops, not just at Christmas but all year round. We offer car parking at Norwich City home games, car boot sales, and fetes, featuring our “Human Fruit Machine”. We also host Race Nights and concerts, and in any other way we can, to raise funds and have a good time.
We also have a good social side with holidays, meals and fun days out all together.
Each year, we try to have one main Charity, and this year it was for Local Dementia Groups. We also started collecting for Defibrillators, and we are about to have our second one installed at Clover Hill Village Hall.
If you have a good cause you would like us to look at please let us know.
We are always looking for new members, so if you have a little time and would like to come to any of our meetings at Clover Hill Village Hall, we meet on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month, please come and see us, we are a friendly group.
We will try to keep you up to date on this web site but also do feel free to contact me, Martin Drake at West Norwich Lions or 07912211393.
Best wishes to all
Martin Drake, President, West Norwich Lions
