Pictured above: All the fun of the Fair
As part of our community projects Program during October, we arrange with Roger Tuby’s Fun Fair for an afternoon of fun giving disabled children free rides at the fair.
Mini bus loads of children arrive with their carers to enjoy the afternoon.
something we have been doing for over 20 years.

Some of our Lions decided to smarten up one of the local play groups.
Materials and paint was begged from local suppliers.
Lion Jim was so impressed with his work, we think he was ready to move in!
