Community
We are a busy part of Shakespeare Lions club and active in all sorts of ways. As well as helping people in the community financially we help at community events e.g. marshalling; having community stalls at events
Cycle Infinity - marshalling
Clopton and Meon Vale community events along with Lord Mayor of Stratford-upon-Avon, Sam McNaught- Barrow
Eco workshop,
Stratford-upon-Avon
On 17th July several members of Shakespeare Lions went along to ECO workshop to look at the work that they do and to present them with a cheque to help them continue with their good work. On this occasion several boxes of spectacles that our members had collected to be recycled were delivered to them for them to sort before they go to our District Lions' collection point for distribution abroad
They also put together all the paperwork that goes into the 'message in a bottle' containers - you can find our more about these here.
New track wheel
for Darcy
Shakespeare Lions funded a trackwheel for Darcy, which has been fitted by Recare with some adjustments to Darcy's wheelchair chassis to help accommodate it.​
Stratford Disabled
Football
We are supporting Stratford Disabled Football Team with help towards to transport costs to matches which are now being provided by Back and Forth. They have 25 regular members both male and female. This club activity promotes inclusivity and ensures a safe and positive experience for all participants, regardless of their abilities or disabilities.
​ We are looking at other ways that we might be able to help them.
How can we help?
We award grants to children and adults with learning and physical disabilities.
We give so they can enjoy and learn from activities and residential events
that otherwise they could not attend. ​​
​​
The Citizens' Advice Bureau (CAB) also administer a sum of money on our behalf
which they use to buy school uniforms, furniture and white goods for people
who can not afford need those essentials.
