A great time was had last night by everyone who attended handover at Highgate Hall in Elton. Lion Gaby Sharman has now taken the responsibility of club president from outgoing president Lion Paul Browne, and the event was marked with fish and chip supper and a barn dance provided by Ock n Dough.
To the great embarrassment of all concerned, some photos are now online….
Deaf Aware is the name by which The Lions Hearing Trust has become known. The Trust is a charitable organisation with objectives to make the general public “Deaf Aware”, and hence better able to communicate with Hearing Impaired Persons.
