Community
Our Causes
Whenever Lions club members get together, problems get smaller.
And communities get better.
Because we help where help is needed
– in our own communities and around the world –
with unmatched integrity and energy.

Every 2 minutes a child is diagnosed with cancer.
One of the most common cancers in children is brain tumours.
Lions can help by supporting the MD’s Brain Tumour Research Project aiming to raise £1 million pounds over the next 4 years.
Lions aim worldwide is to reduce the prevalence of diabetes through education and testing.
We can help by organising awareness events and, for the more adventurous, diabetes screenings.
Lions can support the environment through tree planting, local litter picks and battery recycling.
Over 11% of the world’s population live with hunger and yet 1/3 of the world’s food production is wasted.
We can help by supporting food banks and social supermarkets, by feeding the homeless and by taking part in gleaning (the collection of unpicked crops) with local farms.
Lions have always been involved in sight projects.
We can recycle spectacles, hold awareness events to encourage people to get their eyes tested and, later in the year, take part in the vision screening project.
Whilst vision screening used to be done by schools, two thirds of schools no longer carry out screening. Lions can fill this gap.
The LCIF (Lions Clubs International Foundation) is the Lions Charity within Lions Clubs International
