USUALLY at this time of year Otley Lions club is welcoming a new President and Vice President but not this year.
Richard Phillips is continuing his role as President for a second year as is the club’s Vice President Gareth Dibble.
Over the last 12 months and through the Covid-19 pandemic the club has donated over £13,000 to worthy causes including Otley Scouts, Otley Defibs, Menston Methodist Church, Yorkshire Children’s Hospital’s Christmas Gift Appeal and £4,000 to local schools to use towards computer equipment for at home learning when the schools were closed.
Richard said: “None of this would have been possible without the public and our volunteers and every one at the club thank them.
“With their continued support we can do the same great work this year and in years to come.”
