We meet in Burrendale Hotel and SPA every second Tuesday of each month at 7.30 pm. Coffee Morning every last Thursday of the month at 11am in different venues agreed at the regular monthly meeting.

Recently the debrillator outside the Barbican Supervalu on Dundrum Road Newcastle was used. This is one of the 10 debrillators maintained by Newcastle Lions in the Newcastle area. Each time one of the machines is used there are parts which need replaced at a cost of £120. This is often met by using the funds raised by the Lions during their fund-raising efforts.
On this occasion the Barbican very kindly offered to pay the cost and the store manager Declan Donnan presented a cheque for £120 to the Lions president John McDonagh.
The Lions wish to thank Declan and the Barbican for this generous gesture.
On Saturday 12th April the Lions will be collecting in Newcastle and maintaining the debrillators is just one of the many causes supported by the Lions which benet from these collections. It is important to note that all money collected by the Lions on these occasions go to support charities. Please support the Lions in this effort.
