Lions are ordinary people who do extraordinary things to help others and support good causes throughout the British Isles. Globally we have more volunteers in more places than any other service club organisation, and love to help others and make things happen.
Most of us are females aged 18 to infinity who have joined together in friendship and enjoy each others Company.
We pride ourselves on playing an active part in the local community, helping those less fortunate than ourselves, as well as enjoying a social life with like-minded individuals who come from all walks of life.
Leo Clubs are the young peoples section that encourages young men and women to serve others in their community and around the world.
