Caterham Food Bank

The Christmas Collections with Santa and his sleigh were somewhat reduced this year due to the lack of younger, fitter members. Thanks to Morrisons Oxted and Church Walk Caterham, and to the good people of Godstone who supported the mobile collections. And grateful thanks to a small army of non-Lions who made the door to door collections possible. The total raised was just over £2,400, the majority of which went to support Caterham Food Bank and the balance to Lions SightSavers. (see photo Caterham Food Bank donation) ​

​A Dinner Meeting was held in January, an opportunity for Club Members to socialise and we heard from the Head-to-Head Charity (a sensory theatre group in Oxted for special needs young people) we have supported. ​

Six members of the Club will be heading to Canterbury in February for the District Convention (the Lions of South East England’s AGM) which mixes business with pleasure. On Friday 14th being Valantine’s day, there is a suitable themed meal before a full day of business on Saturday topped off by the traditional banquet and ball in the evening. An opportunity to meet up with old friends and to make new ones from all over the South East. ​
