1st class honours for Dinnington student, Naomi Hall

Maltby Rother Valley Lions were at Aston Carnival yesterday with our Tombola stall and Message in a Bottle stall. There was lots of fun and prizes on the Tombola and thank you to everyone who supported us, including the Lord Mayor of Rotherham Jenny Andrews and Mayoress Jeanette Mallinder, helping us to raise money for local good causes. They were also very interested in our Message in a Bottles. We gave out over 90 bottles free of charge throughout the Carnival, helping the community should they require emergency medical help.

Please contact us if you would like one of these bottles. Message us for more information or call us on: 07504 326336

2020 Christmas donations raise £18,700 for MRVL

Jan 22, 2021 | Fundraising, Local News

Maltby Rother Valley Lions were very busy over the Christmas period bringing some much needed Christmas cheer to our local communities. Our two sleighs travelled the streets with Santa for two weeks before Christmas which was made possible with the help of our wonderful team of helpers, old and new, who turn out whatever the weather. We could not do this without you.

It was very different this year with Covid restrictions, not stopping for photographs and socially distancing and a big thank you to our helpers and to the community for helping us to keep to these rules. Also thank you to our local MP Alexander Stafford, who contacted RMBC on our behalf and supported us on our Sleigh runs and Static sleighs and also to PRS/ PPL who supplied our music licence.

Santa and his helpers also visited numerous local schools where the children were brought out in their bubbles, all socially distanced, to ask him questions and chat with lots of wonderful laughter and singing too!

Thank you from Maltby and Rother Valley Lions Club

In addition thankyou to all the local schools and businesses who raffled our Advent trees and made donations. Our club has been overwhelmed by the generosity of the people of Maltby and Rother Valley in these difficult times, helping us to raise this magnificent amount of money and enabling us to help many causes and those in need in our communities. We would like to say a heartfelt thank you to you all.
