What a fantastic way to spend a Sunday walking around the Recreation Ground.
Many thanks to those Lions who put on their walking shoes on Sunday 26th September. A total of about 26 Kilometres was achieved which is about about 15 miles. For those of you who have maybe not sponsored anybody, you could make a donation through this site.
Stowmarket Lions are still work for the community in 2021 and we have a number of exciting new and repeat events coming up. Watch this space for more details.
Bike Ride to be organised for June 2022
Boxing to be organised for Autumn 2022
Santa’s sleigh will go ahead this year, however the exact routes and dates of collections have not yet been confirmed.
Helping people in and around Stowmarket.
Are you, or do you know, someone in the Stowmarket area who has risen to the challenge of lockdown and gone that extra mile to do something special to help our community ride out the storm of Covid-19? If you, or they, have helped an elderly or vulnerable neighbour by doing their shopping, rung them to check they are OK, walked their dog, baked cakes or maybe contributed to the enormous efforts to support the NHS by making or delivering PPE equipment or food, then Stowmarket Lions want to hear from you.
In recognition of these or, indeed, any other of the tremendous, selfless examples of community spirit, Stowmarket Lions will be hosting an Awards Evening to recognise and celebrate those individuals who have gone out of their way to help others in these extraordinary times. Special awards will be made recognising outstanding effort by those in the age groups 13 and under, 14 to 18 and 18 to 30.
So, don’t hide your light under a bushel but let us know what you’ve been doing or nominate someone you think deserves recognition by contacting Andrew Bingham on 07894 551670 or by e-mail to hero2020@stowlions.org.uk before Saturday 12th September and join us in the celebrations.
