I joined the Lions in May 2024 with the intention of supporting the communities in Chepstow and Caldicot. After being made redundant at the end of 2023, I was uncertain about my next steps; seeking to broaden my experience and strengthen my professional portfolio, I accepted an invitation from Denise Harrison, the President of the Lions, to become a member. Since joining, I have had the opportunity to develop essential soft skills such as communication and adaptability, contribute my expertise in social media marketing to enhance audience engagement, and assume responsibilities beyond my usual remit, including managing meeting notes as acting vice chair.

Did we tell you that we won a global marketing award? One of just eight handed out across the globe for marketing activities in 2024/2025. We might’ve mentioned it once… but we’re quietly (and proudly) telling you again. 😊

It is with deep sadness that we share the news of the passing of our beloved friend and fellow Lion Rowland Searle, who passed on to higher service this past Saturday.

🦁🍷 HAVE YOU GOT THE BOTTLE? 🎯🎁Chepstow and Caldicot — we’re calling on YOU! The Lions are gearing up for our big Tombola & Prize Draw at The Chepstow Show on Saturday 9th August — and we need your help to stock it with amazing prizes!

In a playful and welcoming gesture, the Chepstow and Caldicot Lions helped provide incoming students at Caldicot School with a flamboyance of pink flamingos on Monday morning. The display, which surprised and delighted students arriving for their Transition Day, was a lighthearted way to mark the beginning of their journey into secondary education.

🌟 A Night to Remember! 🌟Last night, the Chepstow and Caldicot Lions Club gathered for our annual Handover Dinner at the Coach and Horses in Caerwent — and what an evening it was! 🍽️🎉

Chepstow and Caldicot Lions has proudly donated funds to support the Parent Teacher Association (PTA) of St. Mary’s RC Primary School in Chepstow. The donation contributes to the development of a dedicated nurture room designed to offer vulnerable students a calm and supportive space.

At Chepstow and Caldicot Lions, we’re always looking for simple, effective ways to raise funds for our community projects, and Easyfundraising is one of the easiest ways you can support us without spending a penny extra.

A year ago, Lion President Denise Harrison of Chepstow and Caldicot Lions was honoured with the prestigious Bert Mason Award for 2024, recognising her outstanding service to youth over the previous three years.It’s been a privilege and a joy to hold the trophy over the past year, proudly representing all that it stands for. But now, the time has come to pass it on, as a new and equally deserving Lion will be named the next recipient later this year. We look forward to celebrating the next winner and continuing to champion the incredible work Lions do for young people in our communities.If you’ve ever thought about getting involved or giving back, we’d love to hear from you. Whether you’ve got a little time or a lot, there’s always a way you can help, and you’d be made most welcome. Get in touch with us to find out how you could make a difference.

Chepstow & Caldicot Lions Club is proud to announce that we’ve been awarded the Lions International Marketing Award for our innovative and community-driven #MeetTheLions campaign.
