Maltby and Rother Valley Lions Club was formed in 1978. Our members come from all walks of life sharing a common goal to help and support others in the community who are less fortunate than ourselves and support various projects and local groups including junior football teams, schools, nurseries, care homes and our annual Lions Fun and Sports day for the disabled.

We raise money throughout the year with our Casino for parties and special events, our Tombola stall and raffles etc. You will see us around the local streets with Santa and his sleigh and outside various local shops with our static sleighs, for two weeks before Christmas, raising money to go back into the local community. We have a committed band of members and volunteer helpers who give up their time, year after year for free come rain, hail, wind and snow.

Why not join us as a member or volunteer helper, raising money for worthwhile causes whilst having fun and sometimes shedding a tear or two!

Thank you to all our sponsors and everyone who donates to us, it is very much appreciated.

If you require any further information please call: Lion Lynn on 07504 326336.

Mrs Morris drew the Maltby Lions’ Advent Tree raffle today during PRIDE assembly. Thank you to everyone for your support, we managed to raise nearly £200 which is amazing! All of this money will go back in to the local community through the work of Maltby Lions. I am pleased to announce that the winners were Miss Wilsher and Mr Jones who have won the advent tree on behalf of the year 4 class - one egg will be earned each day by the class! ?

Don’t forget that we always need help from members of the local community. Could you become a local Lion? Would you like to be part of a very special group of people who put back into their local community? Plus have lots and lots of fun in the process!

If the answer is yes then what are you waiting for? We meet every 1st and 3rd Monday of the month – please call us on 07585 657563 or message us.

How Maltby Rother Valley Lions are bringing a little Christmas joy to our communities

Dec 15, 2020 | Christmas, Community

2020 has been a very challenging year for us all, but that doesn’t stop the well needed Lion’s charity work.

Our two sleighs are running, but not stopping this year for photos and everyone is helping by keeping to social distancing rules.

We are visiting schools where classes are being brought out into the playground in their bubbles at a safe distance and we are standing outside supermarkets again with safe distancing.

The lovely lady in the picture is 95 years old and she is watching Santa live on FaceTime.

A few ways in which we can bring the Christmas spirit to the community safely in these uncertain times.

Santa’s Christmas Sleigh bell’s will be jingling in 2020!

Our members and helpers have been working very hard for the past few months renovating our two sleighs, in the hope that we will be able to take them out and spread some Christmas joy in the community after an awful year.

After first thinking that we would not be able to take them out at all due to Covid restrictions, we are now so happy that we have permission to take them out and about in the run up to Christmas. Details of our sleigh runs will shortly be published on our Facebook page.

On Saturday 5th December we will be outside Tesco in Maltby with Santa, the Sleigh and his helpers from 9.30am to 1.00pm. This will all be subject to strict Covid regulations, practicing social distancing at all times. Unfortunately, the sleighs will not be making our usual stops for photos on our evening runs.

Maltby and Rother Valley Lions Club are looking forward to seeing you all ho ho ho!!
