Leyland and Cuerden Valley Lions Club 

Trustees Annual Report for the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022 

The Club has been gradually recovering from the period of the Coronovirus pandemic when there were no activities. Unfortunately due to the demographics of membership and losses to Covid Club membership has fallen. 

From August onwards the Club has been gradually recommencing activities including service and fundraising. 

Initially the Club was able to carry out charity donations planned during the previous year. This included donations to international appeals including the Australian Bush Fire Appeal and support for Ukraine, national charities including RNLI, and local charities including Leyland Hedgehog Rescue and Central Lancashire Deaf Childrens Society. Donations were also made to British Heart Foundation and Cancer Research in remembrance of recently deceased members. 

Aid provided to others has also recommenced including health and safety supervision at community bonfire displays, and logistical support for a walker from John 'o' Groats to Lands end raising money for Prostate Cancer. 

The Club has continued to actively promote the Lions Message in a Bottle emergency healthcare scheme. The collection of used spectacles for recycling to third world countries has also been recommenced. 

Fundraising has also begun again through events such as tombola stalls at local fetes and markets and pub hamper raffles at Christmas and Easter. 

During the year discussions have been held with neighbouring Chorley Lions Club (who have the same falling membership issues). The clubs have agreed mutual assistance in the short term and a possible merger in the near future.
