Stowmarket town awards

 

What a brilliant night last night, Stowmarket Lions attended the Stowmarket Town Awards and our very own Dave Thomas won the Community hero award. It was a fantastic promotion for the Lions Club of Stowmarket with the Town awards team recognising all the work that the all the members do in our community but awarding Dave for what he does himself in our local community. Dave was very gracious accepting the award but was very keen to point out the award was for the club.

The lions were also mentioned as Poppy Bingham won the Young person of the year award for her work with Suffolk young carers, she thanked the Lions club for introducing her to Suffolk young carers.
