We've been going
as a Lions Club since 1976, doing our best to raise funds for
local, national and international causes and offering practical
help to local people and organisations. We are also very
grateful to the people, youth groups and businesses of Ilminster
and surrounding villages who support us so willingly in parting
with their money at our various events - the Summer Fete (3rd
Saturday in June), 10k road race (1st Sunday in November),
Easter Egg Raffle, Christmas Bazaar at South Petherton and many
other activities. We also collect used spectacles to pass
on to places where they're needed, and mobile phones, inkjet
cartridges and used stamps for raising money.
The Club consists of 25 members who meet at the George Inn,
Donyatt at 7.30 on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of each month.
We are always willing to talk about Lions to people who would
like to join us (See Contact us link) in our activities
especially to bring in fresh ideas for community service and
fund raising. So please have a look at the different
sections of the website and get in touch if you would like to
find out more.
