With the start of the New Year, Calne Lions are looking ahead towards our next big event - DUCK RACE, which will take place on Saturday 17th May, this year.
We still have some more work to do on our shop before you can start purchasing Duck Race Tickets, Ducks for our Business & Ducklings Races, or Community Stall pitches. Previous entrants into the big duck races and stall holders will be contacted once the shop is ready.
Keep an eye on our page for further updates.

Calne Lions would like to wish everyone in our Community a very Happy New Year!
We had a very busy but incredibly successful 2024 -
⭐️ We held a fabulous Charity Ball, in February, to raise funds for Julia's House Children's Hospice and were able to donate £7,000 to help their amazing work.
🦆 Our Duck Race, in May, was a brilliant family day out for the Town with our various races and all the Community stalls, raising around £12,000 for our facilitation fund (which we use to help groups and individuals in our Community).
🎅Our Santa sleigh was out for 20 nights in December, raising almost £13,000 which will go back into helping our Community.
Calne Lions meetings resume later this month as preparations will begin for Duck Race 2025. Previous entrants into our races and community stall holders will be contacted in due course, however if your Charity, School, Children's Group or Business have never entered but would like to, then please contact duckrace@calnelions.org to be added to our mailing list.
If you are interested in joining Calne Lions then email membership@calnelions.org for more information.
If your group is in need of help, then please contact communitysupport@calnelions.org with details of your request and someone will get back to you.
Thank you all for your commitment xxxxxxx Happy new year xxx
Day 25 - Marden Community Hub do a brilliant job providing meals for those in our community that need it, and Christmas Day is no exception.
Calne Lions were pleased to be able to contribute £200 towards the costs of their Christmas meal today. We hope that those in attendance enjoyed it.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
