The Malvern club was formed and chartered in 1975. It is one of the clubs that make up the International Association of Lions Clubs or Lions Clubs International, which was founded in Chicago in 1917. The organisation's motto is "We Serve". It's Mission statement is "To empower volunteers to serve their communities, meet humanitarian needs, encourage peace and promote international understanding through Lions Club's". A more detailed history of Lions Clubs International can be found on the "Who are We?" page of this site.

The club has both male and female members drawn from a wide spectrum of backgrounds. The club is always in need of people who are willing to organise events and are not afraid to hold a can at a collection or help at any of the club's many events. To see what the club does and how it raises money look at the "Fund Raising and Helping the Community" pages of this site.

The running costs of the club are borne entirely from members' subscriptions, raffles at club meetings and club social events. Socially members get together for a variety of events. They also attend events run by other Lions Clubs in the area.

If you are interested, have a look at the "Can I Join ?" page of this site and come along to one of the club's meetings. A warm welcome is always offered to potential new members and visitors.
