About Us
The Lions Club of Leigh on Sea was chartered in 1991. It's members; all wishing to help the less fortunate people within the Leigh on Sea Area. Their aims were simple:-
- Community Service,
- Fund-raising to help the less fortunate within the community and further afield,
- and have fun and fellowship whilst doing it.
The Lions Club of Leigh on Sea has continued to go from strength to strength, it enjoys good social events as well as working hard to raise funds for those less fortunate.
All are welcome to come along to any of our regular club meetings, which are held on the second and fourth Wednesday, 8.00 pm, at The Estuary Club, 1386 London Road. Leigh on Sea, SS9 2UJ
