The Leek Lions had a packed December visiting various venues in their ongoing fundraising and community efforts.
Lions member Lynda Demaid-Jones said: Our Christmas activities have been restricted but we have enjoyed ourselves. The Christmas parcels were welcomed by everyone, while Santa duties included at Blackshaw Moor County First School and Beresford Memorial First School - not sure who enjoyed those visits most, Santa or the pupils. We had a Christmas Lunch with members of the Leek Stroke Club at the Bridgend Garage Cafe which was very enjoyable. As Santa was unable to visit us on this day, Lion President Alan distributed gifts to our guests and the club. We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their continued support. We hope everyone has had an enjoyable Christmas and wish you all a peaceful and healthy New Year 2022.
