Swaffham & District Lions

Message in a Bottle Promotion

On Friday 10th September members

of Swaffham and District Lions Club

were in Swaffham Market Place to

successfully promote Message in a Bottle. This

totally free small container can be, and on occasions

is, a life saver. During the morning a number of local

residents were very pleased to be able to collect a

bottle and one Swaffham based District Nurse took

a whole box to support her patients all of whom live

locally.

The system works by the householder completing a

form and placing it in the small plastic bottle, along

with a copy of their prescription, in their fridge. A

sticker is placed on the outside of the fridge and

another inside the front door. The emergency

services are fully aware of this national scheme

promoted and delivered by Lions across the UK.

Bottles are available from local pharmacies, surgeries

and Lions themselves.

For further information, or to receive your bottle or

one for a friend or neighbour, please contact David

Merchant on 01760 441260 or via gst@lions105ce.

Swaffham Lioness Lions

The Pride of Swaffham

The Lionesses are once again meeting in the

Catholic Church meeting room, and it’s great to be

meeting face to face after so long. We are well on the

way to building up our new Charity Account after

becoming a new Branch Club of Swaffham Lions,

after the closure of Lioness Clubs Internationally.

This was kick-started by a generous donation from

the family of past Lioness Rosemary, who sadly

passed away in June.

We celebrated the Lioness Club’s 30th Anniversary

with a belated birthday party held at the George

Hotel in August. It was a lovely evening with past

and present club Presidents and members attending.

A raffle, a “Heads or Tails” game and the sale of

chutneys and the lovely table flower arrangements

made over £200 for our new Charity Account.

We held a successful Tombola and Bric-a-brac

stall at the Historic Vehicle Rally on the Rec at the

end of August, and we also helped with the event

by selling programmes at the gate. It was a very

popular day and was well attended, so we were

kept very busy!

Pictured below is Peter Young receiving a Lions

Centennial Pin for his outstanding work as Swaffham

Lions Secretary and help with recruiting new

members for over the past ten years from Lion

President Tony Lakey.

Tickets for November's event will be available from
