|Summary ofthe main

ofthe charity
during the year|Summary ofthe main
achievements
ofthe charity
during the year|The CIO is the successor to Bromley Lions Club, which was originally
chartered as a Lions Club on 6~ February 1987.This is the fifth year of
operations as a CIO. The CIO has continued
the activities ofthe old Club
which, rather by default (due to other local Lions clubs having ceased|
|---|---|---|
|||operations) was covering quite a large geographical
area.|
|||The Club's fund-raising
activities
rely on social interaction
which was|
|||either forbidden
or severely restricted for more than a year due to the|
|||Covid19 pandemic.
The loosening
ofrestrictions
in the summer
of2021|
|||allowed the Club to resume
normal activities quite quickly.
Having seen|
|||'Charity'
account income collapse from around f16,000to less than|
|||82,000the Trustees are pleased to report that this latest financial year|
|||saw 'Charity'
account income back to around 216,000.|
|||Ordinarily
the Trustees consider that the traditional
fundraising
events|
|||and activities display good coverage of local areas whilst helping to|
|||spread the word ofthe works of Lions Clubs into a variety of|
|||communities.
Quiz Nights were held in Bromley, Beckenham,
Hayes,|
|||Petts Wood, Biggin Hill and Farnborough,
Lucky Dip stalls were present|
|||at Biggin Hill, Grove Park and Hayes events and the Christmas|
|||collections at Bromley South Station resumed.|
|||Regarding
charitable
grants, thanks to the cautious approach to funds|
|||preservation
adopted
by the Trustees during the pandemic
period the|
|||Club emerged
with sufficient reserve funds such that itwas able to|
|||resume
making charitable
donations as soon as normal social interaction|
|||was permitted.|
|||Overall the Club made 37grants (19the previous year) that totalled
almost R8,400compared to R3,700 in the previous year. Ofthis sum;|
|||90%was granted to 'frontline'
charities;|
|||6%was granted for 'community
benefit';|
|||1%was granted
in respect of'personal
hardship',|
|||3%was granted to Lions appeals and causes.|
|||96%ofthe grants were directly or indirectly for the benefit ofresidents,|
|||communities
or charitable
organisations
working
for the public benefit|
|||within the London Borough of Bromley.|
