The Wider Lions Organisation
The Lions Club of Callington is part of the worldwide Lions Organisation and was granted its charter in 1976.
Our Club is part of a local zone with five other clubs
- Launceston
- Liskeard
- Looe
- Saltash
- Torpoint and Rame
and we actively support each others' work and meet during the year in Zone meetings chaired by the Zone Chairperson.
The Zone is part of district 105SW covering Devon, Cornwall and Somerset which again forms part of the 105 Multiple District (England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Ireland).
The multiple district forms part of the worldwide family of Lions.
Lions started in 1917 in the United States of America and is now the largest service organisation in the world with over a million members.
