WOKINGHAM LIONS CLUB
Ordinary People doing Extraordinary Things
What Do Wokingham Lions Do?
We run numerous fund-raising events throughout the year, including:
Last year we raised over £100,000, and we estimate our events helped charities raise at least another £100,000 for themselves. We donate most of the funds raised to support local charities, partly through our Golden Awards.
We directly support families and individuals facing hardship.
We donate around 10% to disaster relief and global causes via Lions Club International Foundation.
We provide services to the local community through projects like Message in a Bottle, ReTec, Recycled For Sight, Child Sight UK and Lions Share. We also support charities, fellow Lions Clubs and fund-raisers with their activities whenever we can.
Finally, we have fun doing it, organising great social activities for our members.

Part of being a Lion is enjoying the social events we organise for our members, usually one a month.
Last month we visited the Milestones Museum of Living History in Basingstoke.
The Museum is made up of a network of recreated streets that were found in Victorian times and the 1930s in Hampshire. It was a brilliant fun afternoon had by all strolling around the Museum, with vintage vehicles to the milliner, the saddler, the ironmonger, a very old sweet shop selling some childhood favorites, and some houses you could go inside and see how life was like all those years ago.
Afterwards we had coffee and cake……………..PERFECT!!!!
