21st September 2021 – Auckland at Level 3. The rest of the country is at Level 2 from 11:59pm Tuesday 21/9.
Check the government Covid-19 site for more information and updates.
What do we do?
• we help people in our community by giving our time and skills
• we raise money for worthy local causes and national charities
• we have fun and enjoy being together
Who are we?
We’re everyday people who like to help others. We give up our time and energy so we can make a positive difference in our community. We also fundraise for communities in need around the world.
Is it just a NZ thing?
The Rangiora Lions Club is one of thousands of Lions clubs worldwide.
Lions is the world’s largest volunteer service organisation with over 1.4 million people. Although we don’t know most of them, we get on pretty well with those we meet, achieve great things in our community and have a lot of fun doing it.
How does our community benefit?
Rangiora Lions directly help community groups and individuals in the North Cantebury area. Also, our community (and country) can benefit from humanitarian funding from the international Lions organisation. For instance, Lions gave over $1 million to help Christchurch rebuild after the city was rocked by earthquakes in 2010/11.
How do I join the Rangiora Lions Club?
If this looks and sounds like something you’d be into, have a look around the site and find out more.
Membership is by club member invite and you’d get a better idea if you took part in an activity or two before deciding.

Well done to Karen, Bev and the team for their wonderful support of the Battered Women's Trust. Here is a lovely thank you from them:
"On behalf of BWT, a big thank you to everyone involved with donating and creating lovely quilts, toilet bags and backpacks to give to our clients. It was lovely to receive them yesterday, and really appreciate the time put into putting them together, including Bev’s time in delivering them, which is really gratefully appreciated."
Congratulations to Lion Aaron who won the outstanding community service award at the Canterbury West Coast Property Brokers gala tonight. Aaron quietly gives amazing service to local community groups and is always happy to volunteer. #LionsServe
