Fund raising

Fund raising never stops for Uckfield Lions. Annual events such as the Easter Egg Raffle, Lions Day, Classic Car Rally, the Lions Santa Sleigh & Christmas Supermarket Raffle are all well established. The Lions Secondhand Bookshop raises money all year round. 

Community Mini Bus

In July 2016 with the aid of a Government grant & donations from local organisations & individuals, the Club took delivery of a brand new 14 seater Mercedes Mini-Bus equipped with a wheelchair lift and space for 4 wheel chairs when required.

The Uckfield Lions Community Mini-Bus is widely used by many different organisations around the Uckfield area, such as the TN22 Clubs, community groups, guides, scouts & football clubs. This form of 'service' from the Lions is the only way they can ensure their members can be transported to meetings and for outings. It is also well used by the Lions for their summer cream teas & trips around the countryside and transporting people to and from various events.

It is available to hire by organisations, providing their own driver where possible. Drivers are asked to complete a named driver form for acceptance onto the Insurance policy. Uckfield Lions may be able to provide drivers by arrangement.

The current standard rates of hire are £1.00 per mile driven, which includes fuel & insurance, with a minimum hire charge of £15. The community minibus is run on a not for profit basis.

For bookings, please contact Lion Frank on 01825763658 frank phillips60@gmail.com& for further information about becoming a volunteer driver.
