NR8 DIRECTORY APRIL 2021

TAVERHAM & DISTRICT LIONS CLUB NEWSLETTER
We trust you are all keeping well and hope that several of you may
have been fortunate enough to have had the vaccine by now.
As you will be aware our Fundraising has been severely impacted over the past 12 months,
for example our Norwich City Football car park have ceased and are not likely to restart until
August 2021 earliest, all our Summer BBQ’s last year were cancelled. We were, however,
fortunate with a revised Christmas Float plan to visit our local Community in December and
with the amazing support collected over £3,000.00.
We have already lost in 2021 the Costessey two day May Bank Holiday Fete, which has
already been cancelled, Taverham Fayre looks like going the same way. It is highly unlikely
that any of the local schools where we have been fortunate in the past to hold our BBQs will
go ahead this summer.
Despite the lockdowns we have still managed to support and help others, including amongst
others Norwich Foodbank, East Anglian Children’s Hospice and the NNUH where we have
provided underwear and slippers for vulnerable patients.
To generate some income for our charity account we have joined forces with Broadland
Council to sell Lottery tickets. 60% of sales
will go to charity, 40% in prizes and our club
will receive 50% sales which go to our charity
account.
However, this is where we would like your
support please, if you are able to we would
appreciate your help if you would buy a
weekly lottery ticket for just £1 per week, or
£4.34 per month based on 52 weeks paid by
Direct Debit. All you have to do is go
www.CommunityAtHeartLottery.com and
search for Taverham Lions and follow the
instructions.
Your support and help would be greatly
appreciated and thank you for your
continued support of Taverham & District
Lions and our work in the Community.
