CHARITY WORK
The aim of Market Rasen Lions Club is to raise money locally for local national and International good causes as agreed by members of the Club.
In the period 1[st] February 2024- 30[th] June 2025 our charity work was as follows.
-

-
Assisting a local refugee with her relocation to a permanent location.
-
Assisted the local town with public events.
-
Worked with West Lindsey District Council in the organisation and running of a book fair.
HOW WE RAISE OUR FUNDS
-
Our main source of income is through the sale of second-hand books. We have a permanent indoor stall where we sell books each Sunday. We sell our books at Lions and council run events in Market Rasen. In addition, we contribute to a local market monthly through the Spring/Summer as well as attending events as requested in the local area. We have developed a good relationship with many of our regular customers, enabling us to check their welfare.
-
Our Club holds monthly quizzes raising funds through raffle and quiz entry fees.
-
We hold an annual Gardeners Market and Craft Fair each June, raising funds through stall fees, homemade refreshments and donations.
-
In conjunction with Town Council, we hold a Christmas Fair raising money as before.
-
Our Santa sleigh through the town always raises much needed funds and a smile for all the children we see.
-
At Easter and Christmas we ask local businesses to raffle baskets made up at Garnetts, the sweet shop.
