Lion President at the rememberance day parade in Ampthill



Ampthill & District Lions Club were delighted to present Bedford Hospital Stroke Unit with a cheque for £600 towards the sensory garden they are creating to give patients some time away from the ward.   Lion President Paul McGovern is pictured with Lion Kath Wilson presenting the cheque to Jossette and Irene from the Stoke Unit.
 
The money was raised from the raffle at a recent Senior Citizens “Sing-A-Long” evening plus money from our Wishing Wells and a private donation from the family of one of our members who had very successful treatment for a stroke within the Bedford Hospital Stroke Unit.

Moonraker walk 9th October 2010
It was a nice dry evening and 16 teams were involved in walking the planned route through Flitwick moor.The winners were "Marie 2010" who covered the route with a disabled person in a wheelchair!!!! second was ST Johns Ambulance. All team members received a medal for completing the course. Thanks, to the Luton Meat Company for providing 165 sausages, Ampthill bakery for a good discount on the bread rolls, and to the Lions ladies who cooked them ready for the teams on their return apparently they were delicious. It was another well organised event by Lion Paul, which has raised over £5000.
