Need a helping hand with financial support for a good cause or local charity? Bridgnorth Lions may be able to help. Bridgnorth Lions, which has supported the local community since 1976 and is well known for funding major events, also helps dozens of smaller good causes and charities and is open to requests.
Newly elected community and welfare chairman John White explains, “The Bridgnorth community is always generous whenever we run fundraising events. It also responds incredibly well when we have high street bucket collections, especially for big natural disasters overseas.
“We can’t promise to meet every request but we can promise to look at each one, consider it carefully and respond quickly. Our Bridgnorth walk and marathon this year raised more than £100,000 for local and national charities and other good causes. This was largely from the entrants themselves but also from local companies who sponsored the event.”
