🌍🦁 Huddersfield Lions Environmental Week

We are a bit late posting about it but.

Small actions. Big impact. 💚
Thanks to everyone who has supported our recycling and sustainability projects. Together, we've recycled thousands of items, helped charities, supported the homeless, and made a real difference in our community.

♻️ Be Proud. Be Loud. Be The Change. ♻️

🦁A great day at the Knaresborough Bed Race!🛌

Lion VP Cameron and Lion Pete enjoyed helping out at Conyngham Hall entrance gate, selling tickets and watching the fantastic parade.

It was also great to see incoming District Governor, Huddersfield Lion Allan Clark, showing his support for the event while training in Düsseldorf.🇩🇪

Thank you to outgoing District Governor John Sellers who was in the parade. For all his hard work and dedication over the past year. We wish him every success for the future.👏

🦁Brass Band announcement 🎺

After the announcement about Brighouse Brass Band March & Hymn Tune Competition taking place on sunday the 5th of july. We just wanted to put out a post thanking our sponsors as it would be difficult for us to continue the competition without them and also a look at the reversed route the bands will be taking because of the work taking place in Thornton square Brighouse.

We hope you all can attend as its such a great day free to watch but we will be selling programs to help continue to put the event on for you all. You can also score the bands yourself inside the programs.😊

👓 final spectacles sorting hub test run 🦁

Last night was our final test run for our spectacle sorting hub. We had a excellent night with an extra 10 helpers from the Church. Last night was an easier sort as reading glasses and prescription glasses could both be packed together

This was because they have been given to a local man of Huddersfield Tim Marsden (rotary adventures) that does supplies trips too Ukraine every month and opticians out there are going to sort them for the public 👏

6,550 specs were sorted with 5000 of them going to Ukraine Absolutely amazing news and service for everyone involved

🦁Incredible Accomplishment🌟

Hats off to our Lions Club Treasurer Ray Milne for completing a challenge to hike 982,000m for Alzheimer's Society.

That's a metre for every one of the 982,000 people in the UK suffering from dementia - the countries No1 killer. 👏

As well as completing the hiking last week he also reached his ambitious fundraising target of £6000😮
