Newquay Towan Blystra Lions Club are looking forward to a successful 2012 of serving the community, as they welcomed yet another member to their proactive club.

Sarah Morcom became a member last week, in a ceremony held with her fellow lions. Sarah is the fourth member of the club to be in her twenties. She will now help the club in it’s regular activities in the community.

“I am delighted to be the newest member of the club, I have received a lovely welcome from the existing Towan Blystra Lions and I’m really looking forward to working with them all.

“I was inspired to join the club after seeing the hard work and commitment by the members to assist others and support the community. They do fantastic work within Newquay and the surrounding areas and I’m very lucky to be a part of that.”

Lions President Lesley Clarke was very happy to welcome Sarah as the club’s newest member: ” I was extremely happy and proud to sponsor Sarah as a Lion into our club at our last meeting.

“She takes our total membership to 28. This is a great achievement when other Lions clubs throughout the country are struggling to attract young members.”

Lesley added: “I know she will be a useful asset in the club and has already joined a sub committee to progress our work in the community.”
