Kingswinford & Stourbridge Lions have again been busy fundraising for another worthy local charity. Their Easter raffle this year raised £ 500 for the local children’s charity KIDS Orchard Centre, who are based on Lye By-Pass. Lion Ivor Caplan, Lions Welfare Chair, presented the cheque to Claire Jelf, Service Manager and Hannah Pennock, West Midlands Fundraiser at the centre recently.
KIDS provides flexible support packages to suit the needs of the individual and their family. This covers the age range 0 to 25 years and the entire range of disabilities. They help widen the leisure, social opportunities and access to other services in the community, support life skills and help provide short breaks, personal care, respite and sitting services. More information can be found on their website orchardenquiries@kids.org.uk or on 01384 897489
Lions would like to say a big thank you to the people of Stourbridge also the regulars and landlords of The Crown Inn, Oldswinford and the Unicorn, Wollaston who all contributed to the raffle.
