It’s been a very busy summer for the Littlehampton and District Lions.
We have been raising funds to support local causes by attending summer fairs in East Preston, Worthing and Middleton as well as weekly bookstalls in Rustington and supporting Love Local and Screen on the Green in Littlehampton. We were particularly pleased to support the Armed Forces day on the seafront.
We also held a summer lunch and entertainment for senior citizens in Littlehampton and the surrounding areas, and a quiz that raised funds for the local RNLI as well as organising the popular Rustington Charity Street Fair, this year in aid of Blind Veterans. We have supported lots of local charity quizzes, even winning one!
Supporting the new Arun Youth Project with their request for a gaming console was a pleasure.
We also help with marshalling events such as the Mewsbrook Park Easter Egg Hunt and Remembrance Day services
One of our most important roles is supporting the local food banks where we collect provisions and distribute them to local centres, we also purchase essentials and distribute them locally.
As we move away from summer we are now planning distribution of Christmas Gift Parcels as well as our ever popular Christmas Grotto. Father Christmas will also be on tour, details will be available on Facebook presently.
We want to help support local worthy causes and individuals and did you know we also cover Ferring, Arundel, Barnham, Angmering and Yapton and are keen to get even more involved in these areas.
