Ordinary people / amazing things

East District & District Lions Club was formed and Chartered in 1968. We are one of 40,000 lions clubs with a membership of 1.4 million members worldwide.

• Members are divided into Community Services or Fund raising and 95% of all money raised goes back into the local community and 5% towards International Lions projects.
• Since 1978 we have organised the MAY FAIR. Many charities benefit from he occasion.
• We provide holidays for needy folk at our caravan in Pevensey.
• Every February we arrange a party with entertainment for some 200 plus Senior Citizens.
