FIREWORK FIESTA 3 NOVEMBER
Some Star Wars characters helped us sell tickets for our fabulous fireworks and you can still buy them in the Hart Shopping Centre on 27 Oct + morning of 3 Nov. You can also get them from our friends at Serendipity or online. TICKETS ON SALE NOW. More event details here.
Over £6000 of fireworks, lots of good food and drinks, come and have your fireworks party with us. The Star Wars guys will be there too!
BAVARIAN EVENING 23 NOVEMBER
TICKETS ON SALE NOW. More details here. The fabulous Bettesteiner Footstompers Oompah Band are back with us again.
It was great to meet you!
Arie and Richard were ready for a chat. If you didn't catch them then send us an email to membership@fleetlions.org.uk
We're looking for people to help us at Fleet's Firework Fiesta on 3 November.
Who are the Lions?
Lions are the largest community service organisation in the world. We’ve just raised over £21 million to help protect tens of millions of children in the world’s poorest countries from measles. The men and women of Fleet Lions help local people and organisations where there is need. We organise some of the biggest events in the town to keep you entertained - and we have fun doing so!
12th Night Beerfest on Saturday 4th August
What a fabulous day! Over 900 of you came and drank over 3500 pints of 44 beers + ciders. That has raised over £10,000 for charitable purposes. Silent Pool gin seemed to slip down well too. + great music and food. So Sebastian's Action Trust & Hampshire Search & Rescue went home with a nice cheque.
No.13 WILL BE ON 3 AUGUST 2019, SO PUT IT IN YOUR DIARIES.
Message in a Bottle
The Lions Message In a Bottle scheme is a simple idea designed to encourage people to keep their personal and medical details on a standard form and in a common location - the Fridge. Whilst it is focused on the more vulnerable people in our community, anyone can have an accident at home, so this scheme can benefit anyone, including you. More details here. Contact miab@fleetlions.org.uk if you need one/some.
Dates for your diary
Fleet Firework Fiesta, 3 November, Calthorpe Park, Reading Road North.
Bavarian Oktoberfest, 23 November, Zebon Copse Community Centre.

A year in the life of Fleet Lions Club
A major thanks to John Sutton of Clearwater Photography who followed us around for a whole year and then turned what he saw into this fantastic film. You the public voted us into THE SHORTLIST of the documentary section the Charity Film Awards.Many thanks to those of you who voted for us. Did the judges put us into the finals? Sadly they didn't but here's a comment from them ‘The video told clearly the surprising different work done by Lions and the charities which benefited not just financially but in practical ways.’ It was an honour to take part along with many other incredible organisations who serve their community too. Ordinary people doing amazing things!
