Welcome to Abingdon Lions Club
Who are Abingdon Lions?
We are a group of local people, who volunteer our time to help our community.
We are a small part of an international organisation, Lions International.
Abingdon Lions Club Charitable Trust is a registered charity (no. 1055471).
How do we help our community?
Lions are community service orientated, we give our time, but to help this along we raise money, which we can then use to help those in most need.
How do we raise money?
In the summer months we attend various events with our Lions Tombola, At Christmas we run the Santa Sleigh that goes around the streets of Abingdon and surrounding villages.
Ongoing projects
Message in a bottle and wallet
A simple idea to help people to keep their personal and medical details in an accessible place for paramedics.
Spectacle and hearing aid recycling
Recycling spectacles and hearing aids
Defibrillators in the Community
Buying and installing several defibrillators around Abingdon
How can I get a grant or request funding?
If you are a charity or organisation you can fill out one of our grant forms. If you are a person in need or want help with something, then please get in contact
Interested in joining us?
Abingdon Lions are currently looking for more volunteers. The more Lions we have the more we can achieve, not only maintaining what we do currently but to grow as well.
We meet monthly to plan activities and consider welfare requests. some members also meet up for a weekly coffee or breakfast
If you are over 18, and can spare a little time why not find out more.
