We organise and help with events around Bodmin, run the town’s glasses recycling boxes, and raise money for local and international causes.
Bodmin Moor Ten Tors walk
A 13-mile sponsored team walk over Bodmin Moor, organised by Bodmin Lions every May. Teams raise money for a charity of their choice.
Father Christmas sleigh
Every December Bodmin Lions take Father Christmas and his sleigh around the streets of Bodmin, collecting for local charities.
Bodmin fireworks, Priory Park
Bodmin Lions are part of the joint committee that runs the 5 November fireworks display in Priory Park, with profits going to local children's and youth groups.
St Piran's Day parade
Bodmin Lions marshal the Bodmin St Piran's Day schools' parade down Fore Street every 5 March.
Recycle your old glasses
Drop unwanted glasses in the Lions collection boxes at Specsavers and Boots Opticians in Bodmin. They go to people overseas who can't afford a pair.
