TODMORDEN LIONS CLUB
We raise funds and provide assistance to those in need. We provide help and assistance to many less fortunate people in our local community - the blind, the elderly, the disabled and many other groups and individuals. We engage the community in both our fund raising and welfare projects.
Why the community needs this charity
Our local community has an ageing population and we stage a number of concerts for old people. We do recognise however that young people are important and we have started a Leo's club for young people and provide a day out for children from a local school. We have also helped a number of disabled people by providing funds for specialised equipment.
Results and outcomes
A special bed provided for young person with cerebral palsy. OAP concerts have been staged. Hospital packs are delivered to local hospitals. The Peace Poster competition successfully completed. Leo's club still running.
Latest activities and projects
Peace Poster
This activity is run in the form of a competition on a local (and ultimately worldwide) basis to encourage young people to think about Peace by painting a Poster with a theme about Peace. We award a small prize for winners locally but the ultimate possible prize is a trip to New York to visit the United Nations Headquarters. read more
