Leominster Lions Club members braved the adverse weather conditions prior to Christmas Day when they manned the Lions Sleigh at Queenswood. Father Christmas, with a sack of toys, greeted all the children. The winner of the Santa Treasure Hunt cuddly bear was A.Groves from Leominster. During the last six months, the Leominster Lions have raised £4,500 for local people and charities. The primary beneficiary of this will be the new Leominster pool. £3,000 will be soon be presented to Roger Hunt, chairman of The New Sydonia Pool and Recreational Appeal Fund, following the successful Christmas Draw. Club meetings are held every second and fourth Monday of the month at 8pm at the Talbot Hotel. For more information, contact President Maureen Compton 01432 850965.
