We love volunteering and know it helps others but also give us a feel good boost so it's interesting to see some of the science behind volunteering as a part of a group. If you would like to find out more and perhaps join us please get in touch either here or on our website www.shirleylions.co.uk

Every month a group from Shirley Lions help with the sorting of spectacles which we collect and which are then distributed to countries where eye care is limited. To see how this works https://lionsrecycling.co.uk/why-donate/ You can donate glasses at many local opticians if you have any problems let us know.
This link to our website shows where we collect from https://www.shirleylions.co.uk/activities/worldsightday.html
