Charity Support – Wokingham Lions Club

Wokingham Lions Club makes regular donations to support the work of local charities from the funds we raise from running local events. We also contribute around 10% of what we raise to LCIF, the Lions Club International Foundation.

Support to Families & Individuals

We are very happy to receive requests for support. This may be from a local group, a charity supporting an individual who needs help, a referral from social/welfare services or an individual who is struggling and needs our services. We may require more details and sometimes further information about on-going support, but we always help if we can. In the first instance please get in touch here.

Golden Awards

Our Golden Awards Scheme started in 2024, the 50th Anniversary of the Club. The scheme is continuing to run, in it we continue our spirit of giving with awards of £500 each to support local charities and community organisations that wish to start a new initiative and need help with funding.

If you are involved with a local charity or community group that you think would qualify for a Golden Award then please complete an application form.

If you are a local charity or community group that would like us to keep you updated regarding events that you can use to help with fundraising or raising awareness, such as the Wokingham Walk, Wokingham Swimathon, May Fayre or Winter Carnival, you can subscribe to our mailing list here.

#WokinghamLions #WeServe #charitysupport #WokinghamSwimathonWe’re so excited to be taking part again in the upcoming Wokingham Lions Club Swimathon! 🌊

Every length we swim is about so much more than fundraising. It’s about creating change, rebuilding lives and making sure survivors and their families can access specialist, long-term support when they need it.

We’re swimming for fellow survivors who have had to start again.
For the children growing up affected by abuse.
For the families rebuilding their lives.
For the futures that deserve to look different. ✨

And we’d LOVE for you to get behind Team Kaleidoscopic UK by sponsoring our swimmers. 🙌

💙 Every pound raised helps us continue our survivor-led, specialist support and create opportunities for recovery, connection and hope.

Your support can also help us provide our Christmas hampers, bringing a little extra warmth, dignity and joy to families who may otherwise face an incredibly difficult Christmas. 🎄🎁

This isn’t just a swim.
It’s every stroke towards a safer, stronger future. 🏊‍♀️✨

If you can sponsor our team, no matter how big or small, you’ll be helping us turn fundraising into real, long-term change.

💙 Sponsor Team Kaleidoscopic UK.
💙 Help us keep swimming for survivors.
💙 Help us create change that lasts.
