Frequently asked questions.

Who are the Lions?

bullet

The largest service club organisation in the world with more than 1.4 million members in 196 countries.

What would be expected of me if I join a Lions club?

bullet

Ideally we would like you to attend as many of our regular business and social meetings as you can,

 

bullet

After that it is up to you. The help we will require may vary from a couple of hours, an evening or most of the day depending upon the event. We recognise that many potential members are very busy people so all we ask is that you turn up for whatever time you can reasonably afford to give.

What are the costs of becoming a Lion?

bullet

Members of our Club currently pay subscriptions of £25 for 6 months. This is sufficient to cover all our Administration Fees, Insurances and a bi-monthly magazine which gives details of Lions activities within Great Britain and Ireland.

Why does the Lions Club need new members?

bullet

It is inevitable that in any organisation, members move on through work commitments or many other reasons and they need to be replaced.  New ideas and personalities are the life blood of any forward -thinking organisation and new members bring with them not only original ideas but fresh thought and outlook on established events.

bullet

Additionally, the present members are convinced that with even one or two more members we could once again begin to raise money by organising a range of challenging, interesting and productive events.

How old must I be to become a member of a Lions Club?

bullet

Members of Lions Clubs must be at least 24 years old.

How do I find out more about lions?

bullet

The easiest way is to accept our invitation to attend some club meetings for perhaps three of four months. You will see how we operate, get to know us better, have ample opportunity to ask questions and experience the satisfaction, fellowship and fun to be derived from such involvement. We won’t expect any payment or other commitment during this time, other than to cover the cost of any meal at our Social meetings. Hopefully, having tried the experience you will want to join us.

bullet

You could also visit the various web sites of Lions Clubs international that will deal with  International, National or District  aspects of the organisation.
