In the charity's own words
We remain an active Lions Club having a successful Christmas 'helping' Father Christmas at the DMR Miniature Railway at Marple. Our local calendar with professional photographs of our local area, once again, has been successful though overall sales are down. Aging membership has affected our numbers but recently we have gained some new members and overall the future is looking positive!
