New Lions President
In the normal course of events Billingshurst and District Lions Club would have held a garden party to celebrate the installation of our new president - Viv Diggens taking over from Joan Bobker. However this was not possible under the current safety considerations. So the 2 of them got together with appropriate social distancing and passed the baton.
We thank Joan for her tireless efforts over the past year and wish Viv all the best for his second term of office.
Community Services
We offer a variety of support to those in need. This includes three mobility scooters which are loaned out when available. Please click here to go to the "Community Services" Page.
