What a pleasure is has been to award and present many charities and causes with donations from our annual Santa’s Sleigh. The presentation evening took place on the 31st January 2020 with Counsellors Karen Shakespeare and Les Jones at the Stourbridge Institute.

Final Preparations for Christmas!
Santa is finalising his Christmas preparations for 2019. Before he heads back to the Northpole, to ensure that all the presents are wrapped, labelled and ticked off against the many Christmas lists that he’s received over the past year, he is going to help us do three more Sleigh runs around Kingswinford and Stourbridge.
Look out for him on Friday in High Acres, he’s in and around Penfields on Saturday and his final run with us is around Charterfields & Blandford Mere on Sunday. Start times are: 6 pm on Friday and 4 pm on Saturday and Sunday.
Route details are here. 
Santa is looking forward to seeing you all!

Lions go Quackers
At their canal fun day and duck race, Kingswinford & Stourbridge Lions Club combined their fundraising with a great day out for local families. The Event was held on 9th June on the playing fields adjacent to Wordsley Canal Junction. As well as the main event of racing ducks from the lock, there was canoeing, boat trips and stalls representing various local charities.
Proceeds from the race and food sales will go to one of the Lions current charities, Papyrus which works to prevent teenage suicides and the event has also helped the other charities attending to promote their efforts and raise funds.
