As the new Lions year begins in July, the club looks back at another year of service to the communities of Yatton, Congresbury, Wrington and surrounding area. As a result of generous support of the residents to the Lions fundraising events many local people, organisations and charities have been helped. The Lions minibus and the Playground for special needs children and their families have continued to be well used and are great assets to the area.

The playground has recently undergone a major refurbishment thanks to a local company. The Christmas carol float, Golf day, Beer Festival, Easter egg draw and Strawberry Line walk continue to be the main fund raisers and are as popular as ever.

Many Families are supported during the year and whenever a need is brought to the Lions they do their best to help. During the year many charities have been supported such as The Brittle Bone Society, Young Minds, Penny Brohn, Nacoa, Cintre, Yatton Youth Club, Young Carers, Clevedon Food Bank, Local Schools, Bibic, Action For Children and Springboard to name a few.

Yeo Valley have an ongoing project to support Dementia Care and Diabetes awareness. As a Dementia friendly club events are planned to support families where this condition can be life changing.

Yeo Valley Lions Beer and Cider Festival was a great success. Thank you to our sponsors and all who supported and attended.

A big thank you to BAM Ritchies for the fantastic work carried out by over 50 people on 9th May, making significant improvements to the Playground. More detail on this will appear shortly.

As in previous years, Family Fun Days will be held at the Playground on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1.30 pm to 4 pm, in the school holidays. Members are free to join in on these days, they are, however noisy with lots going on and this may not be the best environment for some members.

Thank You To All Who So Generously Supported Our Santa Sleigh Visiting Streets In Our Area.

Father Christmas has now returned to the North Pole for a well earned rest, following his exertions in the run up to Christmas. Before he left he asked me to thank all the residents of the area covered by Yeo Valley Lions Club (Yatton, Cleeve, Claverham, Congresbury, Wrington and Langford) for the support they gave whilst he was on his annual tour round the district. He was delighted that he was able to assist the Lions raise £7224 to enable them to continue helping others throughout the year, and appreciated the warm reception that he and his band of elves received wherever they went. In addition club members raised a further £2004 though the collections at their Carol Service and at Cadbury Wyevale Garden Centre and Budgens, Langford (to both of whom grateful thanks).
