Eating With The Havant Lions!

 

The COVID-19 crisis has left many Havant households in dire straits.  While the government is making money available to support people during the crisis there is inevitably a delay in getting cash into peoples’ hands.  This can mean that in the short-term people don’t even have the money to buy basic foodstuffs.  Havant Lions have allocated an initial £2,000 to help to alleviate this misery locally.  The funds have been converted into £50 food vouchers which are being routed via Social Services and Citizens Advice to make sure the vouchers go to the people with the most need in the area.  With over £1,800 already given out the vouchers are obviously filling a pressing need.

 

 

**We are looking for New Lions**

 

“Havant Lions always welcome applications from people who are interested in serving their community while having a good time doing it! Normally we would invite anyone interested to join us at the Brookfield Hotel to get a better idea of what the club does.  However, at the moment we are limited to online meetings so simply email us on membership@havantlions.org.uk and we’ll be happy to get back to you with more information about the Club and the Lions organisation in general”
