Lions members are always happy to receive requests for assistance with each one looked at on its own merits.

A Lions Club spokesman said: “Lions are ordinary people within their local community who willingly volunteer some of their time to humanitarian causes in the local and global community.

“Every penny collected through fundraising goes directly to supporting good caused. Any administration costs are paid for by member subscriptions.”
