Henley Lions are very pleased and proud to have been able to make a donation to the Henley Music School. At our March 2020 business meeting Lion President David Skinner presented a cheque for £1,000 to Laura Reineke, CEO of Henley Music School. The donated funds were collected just prior to Christmas when he helped with Santa with his Sleigh going around the streets of Henley. Santa’s Sleigh is all about children and the Henley Music School is also all about our local children. Laura thanked the club and explained that the funds would be used to provide bursaries for a group of autistic children who receive piano lessons organised by the Henley Music School.

At our March 2020 business meeting Lion President David Skinner had the honour and pleasure of inducting our newest club member, Caroline Adamson. Caroline was sponsored by her husband Dave who has, himself, only joined fairly recently. We are extremely happy to have Caroline join our team and look forward to having her get involved in all of our club’s activities serving our local community.

At our monthly business meeting of 3 Feb 2020 Henley Lions presented a £500 cheque to Ernie Povey and his daughter Debs Boughey for the 1st Shiplake Scouts. Lion President David Skinner and Lion Pam Phillips thanked both Ernie and Debs for all their help with Santa’s Sleigh. Pam said that we couldn’t make the sleigh happen without their untiring help. The funds will be used to help kit out their scout hut which recently suffered fire damage.
