December 2022, Worthing Lions supported Richard Johns, with a donation of £1,000, who unselfishly bought 19 small petrol generators and using his van drove by himself to Ukraine to provide humanitarian aid to Ukraine.
Lions President Adrian presented Richard with the £1,000 before he left on his mission.
Included in the van were spare parts for the generators plus lots of cables, adaptors and LED lights
Richard drove from Worthing to Lviv to deliver the generators to the Catholic University of Lviv helped by UK4UA charity who work directly with the Ukrainian aid agencies, they also organised the paperwork to cross the Polish/Ukraine border and will distribute the generators within Ukraine.
The generators will be sent out to Resilience Centres primarily in the East of Ukraine.
Richard also donated his van to the people of Ukraine.
Richard Johns appeal on Just giving came to the attention of a Worthing Lion who recommended to the club that we support Richard in his endeavours and it was agreed we would make a £1,000 donation. Chanctonbury Lions also heard of the appeal and donated £500.
If you want to help Richard please donate direct to Richard's crowd funding on Just Giving.
