2026 Report

On Saturday 18th July, Lions Clubs from across our district hosted their Annual Special Needs Sports and Fun Day, supported by the King John School, Benfleet.
Over 100 guests & carers from special needs clubs in Gosport, Aylesbury, and nearer to home, Chelmsford (Club Grapevine) & Castle Point (Phoenix) enjoyed over a dozen activities ranging from javelin through to creative arts. Refreshments & lunch were laid on, with a raffle and music/dance when the sports were done. The day ended with our very active medal giving, which saw David Burton-Sampson MP, Mayor of Castle Point, Councillor Kate Knott & her Consort, Councillor John Knott, running around the sports hall delivering gold, silver and bronze medals to the competitors. No one left empty handed! It was a close-run competition, but Phoenix won the team trophy. Congratulations to all!
This fun-packed day was organised by Leigh-on-Sea Lions alongside Billericay, Castle Point, Eastwood, EA Lion Lionesses, Rayleigh and City of Southend, but without the support of the following, the day would not have been a success:
Local Scouts and Guides (Ian, Julie, Jenny & youngsters)
Independent volunteers (Brian, Dave, & Debbie)
Morrison’s Hadleigh
Priority Management Services Ltd
THANK YOU 🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁😍😍😍😍😍
