Santa had an excellent time touring the streets of Henley in his trusty sleigh just prior to his big night. He and his teams of helpers were out for 8 nights and the generous residents of Henley contributed over £5,300 to the Henley Lions Club’s charity fund in the process. A huge thank you to everyone who contributed and to everyone who was involved in making this event happen.
This year’s annual Swimarathon took place on 26 March 2022 and proved a very successful event. We missed having this event for two years due to the Covid pandemic so were eager to get it going once again. We had teams from a number of local schools, clubs and organisations and raised circa £4,500 for charity, half of which will go to the charities being supported by the teams that took part.
Once again this year Henley Lions Club will be running our charity car park over the revised days of Henley Royal Regatta 2021. As has been the case for many years we will be setting up on the grass verge along the Fair Mile. The daily charge will be £10.00 every penny of which will go to into our charity funds.
Congratulations to all those youngsters who entered our Henley Lions Painting Competition especially to our 1st Prize Winner, Maisie Osborne. Thank you to Michaela of the Henley Herald for such an excellent report. https://www.henleyherald.com/2021/04/28/maisies-blossom-tree-painting-wins-lions-childrens-art-competition/?fbclid=IwAR3E5baRsyYgsV6WbS-ezYPPbC6V_hix2Psa45YJI2w5pit-vxdR12ivIGk
