A Note from our President
We have been serving and supporting individuals, families, youth organisations and charities in need, both in our local and global community, since January 1967.
We are one of 46,000 Lions clubs internationally and proud to be part of the world’s largest
voluntary community service provider.
Thank you so much for visiting our website and we all hope you find it a rewarding experience.
We are still very active in supporting our local and global community despite the pandemic. We
believe that belonging to a Lions club must
be both fulfilling and fun. On the fun side, we
have an active social committee and still enjoy
each other’s company albeit
often virtually at this time.
If you would like to learn more about joining our Lions Community please contact us.
Charles Williams
President of Shakespeare Lions 2021-2022
Recently Shakespeare Lions was proud to honour two of its longer serving members with a Melvin Jones Fellowship - Melvin Jones was the person who started Lions Clubs more than 100 years ago, a service organisation which has now grown to more than 1.4 million members worldwide. The award is given to recognise outstanding contribution to service to the community over an extended period of time.
Both Bob Basson and Trevor Lloyds-Adams have both clocked up 40 years of outstanding humanitarian service and are pictured with Lion David Dumper who is also a Melvin Jones fellowship recipient.
Each recipient received an engraved plaque and a badge.
Shakespeare Lions President, Charles Williams, presented the award in Bob's garden along with fellow Lions, Mike, June and Janet.
