serving the local community worldwide
Derwent Lions Club’s next big event is a summer concert, this year a Concert for Ukraine, raising money for the Disasters Emergency Committee Humanitarian appeal. Attached is a poster advertising the event.
We have been lucky to sign up two excellent performers, the choir and the band and are hoping for a big response in ticket sales. If anyone wants tickets then happy to be contacted and arrange this.
We’re back in action with live events, the first of which will be our Inter Pub Quiz on Friday 22nd October at 8:30pm – 100 quickfire questions in 30 minutes.
The winners will have answered the most questions in the shortest time and will receive a framed certificate to hang on the pub wall.
The pub which raises the most money will also receive a framed certificate to that effect.
If you can’t make it to one of the venues listed below you can still make a donation to the club’s charity account by clicking on the QR code shown below:-

We are planning to run the Bike Ride next May and would like to hear from people and organisations who have been involved in the past as well as riders past and future who would like to take part
If you buy from Amazon they have a scheme whereby 0.5% of the value of your order will be donated to a registered charity of your choice.
Instead of visiting amazon.co.uk go to smile.amazon.co.uk and choose Elmet Lions (CIO), then go ahead and make your purchase in the usual way. You will receive your purchase for the usual price and we will receive that charity donation.
Thanks for you support.
We have teamed up with Wincanton Logistics and Sainsbury’s to jointly present a cheque for £1,200 to Hungate Primary School, which will provide new books and a reading programme for their library. Here we are – socially distanced – presenting the cheque with our very own Elmet Lion !!

We read about the toy appeal from Sherburn Scouts who are distributing to families in the area. We have gone out and bought presents for all age groups. They’ll be dropped off at the Scout Hut in the day. Hope it makes the children happy at Christmas
Been to drop our gifts off at the Scouts hut . Must say they have done really well with their collection. Well done!
