Xmas Parcels 2018
Lion President Richard Balchin, with Lions John and Catherine Dalton , Pat Payne and Maureen Johns with some of the parcels
Although we did not distribute the yellow bags to the community - Woolmer Forest Lions pulled out all the stops and made up a number of Xmas Parcels in order to bring some cheer to deserving cases in our area.
Maureen Johns the Clubs Welfare Chairman said:
' I must place on record my thanks to the Poundshop in Petersfield and Tesco's in Bordon who supplied the food for the Xmas Parcels. I must also thank the communities who donated money throughout the year, that helped Woolmer Forest Lions to make up 46 Xmas Parcels of food to hopefully ensure that people in our communities have a better Xmas.'

Mick Mallinson, President of Lindford Working Men's Club and Paul Woodward, Secretary were presented with a cheque for £500 from the Woolmer Forest Lions Club to complete the total amount they needed to raise to purchase a defibrillator. Mick Mallinson said the donation was very much appreciated and they would now be able to go ahead and get the defibrillator, which would probably be positioned in the outside porch.
