With the upcoming Charity Horse Race event at The Langdale Hall in aid of Marie Curie on 22nd June 2024, we thought that the horses and jumps could do with a bit of a spruce up, so a small team of volunteers grabbed their paint & brushes and got to work
At our 8th April business meeting we were able to officially welcome our latest member Ted to our club and to Lions Clubs International (LCI), the largest service voluntary organisation with over 1.4 million members in 200 countries around the world.
If you are not a Member or a Friend of Witney Lions and are interested in getting involved within the community, you would be very welcome, either come along to The Blue Boar, Bosworth Suite or request a Zoom link.
Whichever you decide, please contact secretary@witneylions.org.uk to let her know you wish to attend.
The Lions helped run a Race Night to raise funds for Petals and Aching Arms ( charities who support bereaved families after the loss of their baby during pregnancy, at birth or soon after.) in memory of Nuala. A superb night of fun was had by all and most importantly a huge sum of money was raised for the charities both on the Tote and the raffle.

Great fun was had by all at the recent Lions’ skittles evening held at ‘The Ferryman’ pub at Bablockhythe. 25 members and friends enjoyed excellent pub food, and battled through 3 rounds of keen competition. Sue Lovell brilliantly retained her individual champion title and carried off the famous Lion trophy. Lion Leith Holmes was victor in the ‘Killer’ competition. Great thanks go to Lion Ian and Sue Ranscombe for their hard work in planning and running a great evening.
The Lions Dream Scheme is looking to support and inspire a number of local projects which are trying to make a real difference to the lives of people in our community.

Lion President Wyn entertained Lions and friends of Lions to a New Year Party recently. Vice President Julie and Margaret prepared a delicious hot meal which was most welcome on a cold day. We had a superb raffle which was organized by Val. Everyone present received a prize and money raised was put towards the charity fund. Lion President Wyn expressed a big thank you to Vice President Julie, Margaret and Val for all their hard work. A great time was had by all.
