## **ANNUAL REPORT TO CHARITIES COMMISSION** Stone Lions Club (Charitable Incorporated Organisation) continues in its stated purposes of empowering volunteers to provide broad community support, including the advancement of good citizenship and working for the benefit of the -people of the Stone catchment area. It is with regret that, essentially, because of our ageing membership some of our fundraising activities and services provided have had to be modified so that we can continue to gather in funds and spend them to the benefit of our community. The decisions have in many instances been made reluctantly but follow on from careful risk assessment of the activity under discussion and the abilities of the members carrying out the work. For example, we no longer hold an annual duck race, but our supply of plastic ducks is made available to other organisations in support of their fundraising activities. Further, the scope of the Stone Lions Mobility Scheme has had to be limited to non-motorized items only. Again, through age our profile our numbers have reduced to a total of 23 members. As a Club it is sad to report the recent deaths of members. Every effort is being made and all avenues are being explored to bring this number up whilst reducing the average age of our members, with little success.
