In 2020 Petersfield Lions held twice monthly Zoom meetings in order to ensure it was business as usual within limitations of the Covid rules and started planning fundraising events for when the lockdown eased.
During the year we raised £3,500 holding events within the guidelines when we could. Once lockdown eased, we held a book and jigsaw stall, jigsaws turned out to be really popular during the lockdowns! in September we captured the imagination of the town by doing a sponsored ‘Performing Lions’ where Members performed personal challenges for sponsorship. Over half term we did a children’s Treasure Hunt, gaining the support of local shops who displayed odd items in shop windows for the children to search for. We held a Christmas envelope appeal with the help of 2 DofE Bronze award candidates. More book and jigsaw stalls saw us raising money through spring.
Over the last few years, we collected donations via the Winter Fuel Allowance scheme where those not needing their government grant donated to us so we could grant money specifically to help fuel homes of the poor. An additional new appeal was launched called ‘Fuel for the Home, Fuel for the Body’ to extend the grants to food and fuel knowing that lockdown would create this extra need. Working with the CAB, money from this fund has been given to several families and individuals needing it.
We launched Message in a Wallet scheme, an extension to the invaluable and widely used Message in a Bottle, a free service to aid emergency services find a patient’s vital information such as medicines and NOK.
Through the year we paid out over £9,000: in grants, fuel bills, laptops and blankets to 2 local schools, 2 soup makers to the free food shop, children’s clothes to a needy family, funded some of the Town Mayors Christmas Hampers, money to Kings Arms children’s charity and several donations to the Food Bank. It was important for the Club to recognise others during the pandemic for the work they did and so gave Appreciation Awards to 3 members of the community.
Litter picking as individuals or in bubbles through the year was a regular occurrence although most of our volunteering has been marshalling. After successfully marshalling the flu clinics, 2 of our Lions coordinated other Lion volunteers and local
people to marshal the Pfizer and AstraZeneca vaccination clinics at the Festival Hall, where over 53,000 vaccines have been administered since December. The pandemic has taught many the importance of kindness, compassion, conversation and community but for us Lions these have always been our core values and that’s at the heart of what we do and will continue to do.
