What a wonderful evening we spent with the recipients of our Community Grants 2026.
Each group to receive one of our grants had the opportunity to give a presentation about the service they give to our community and, WOW, what inspirations they all were!

After the presentations, our guests and club members spent time chatting and sharing services to support each other.

We were delighted to award grants to:
Bradwell Buds
Shrublands Community Trust
1st Great Yarmouth Scouts
James Paget Osteo Support Group
Great Yarmouth Brass
Caring Together
and we also had Cliff Park NU Netball Club who are the recipients of our grass roots sponsorship this year

Huge thanks also go to Imperial Hotel for hosting our event.

👀 Have you heard of Vision Norfolk Great Yarmouth Hub?

As part of Great Yarmouth Lions Club’s Vision Service Week, we want to shine a light on a fantastic local resource supporting people living with sight loss. 💙

The Vision Norfolk Great Yarmouth Hub offers support to people aged 18 and over who have sight loss that cannot be corrected with spectacles. It’s a welcoming, non-clinical environment where people can meet others, try new activities, build confidence and enjoy being part of their community.

☕ From coffee mornings and breakfast clubs to crafts, pub club, quiz nights, audio book club, technology sessions, seafront walks and day trips, there’s plenty going on! Activities take place on most days, so there are lots of opportunities to get involved.

And the best bit? There’s absolutely no pressure, you can choose the activities that appeal to you, come along when you feel like it, and enjoy the hub at your own pace. Whether you’re looking to meet new people, learn something new or simply enjoy a friendly cuppa, you’ll be made welcome. 💜

Support for children and young people under 18 is available through Vision Norfolk in Norwich.

📢 Know someone who could benefit? Please share this post and help us spread the word. You never know who might need this support, or who might be glad to know it’s available.

👓♻️ DID YOU KNOW? Great Yarmouth Lions Club runs a School Specs Recycling Programme! 🦁💙

We collect unwanted spectacles to give them a new lease of life, helping people around the world who lack access to the eye care they need. The programme also teaches pupils about eye health, recycling and how small actions can make a big difference! 🌍✨

Last term, three fantastic local primary schools collected 100 pairs of glasses, a huge well done to our amazing ! 👏💛

🏫 Would your school like to get involved?

We have three ways to take part:
👓 Collection drives
♻️ Recycling workshops
📚 Educational talks

These are just starting points! We’re happy to work with your school to find an approach that suits your pupils and your needs. Let’s explore the possibilities together!

📩 Message us or email [email protected] to find out more.

Together, we can reduce waste and help bring the gift of sight to those who need it most! 💙👓
