Club members Chris Hetherington and Anne Fry used their sewing skills to make activity mats for residents of both Moyneyana and Belfast houses at Moyne Health Services.

Lions club member Wendy Hunter explained the activity mats provided an important service to residents.

"These mats help dementia patients when they are agitated and to give them sensory stimulation," Ms Hunter said.

"In addition, the club has established a Lions Care Program with Moyneyana and Belfast houses to identify support to residents who have no family available to provide personal care items and clothing or whose families live far away, including overseas.

"Lion Cherie Firth is a staff member at Moyneyana House and liaises with the club to advise on the residents' needs."

As part of this program, the Lions club has donated four electric shavers for residents to use.

Ms Hunter said the worthwhile nature of this donation also brought in business support.

"The club recently received a request for help in purchasing some electric shavers as the disposable razors are too harsh on delicate older skin," Ms Hunter said.

"We purchased two immediately and ordered two more from Brookes Hardware in Port Fairy.

"Members were delighted to find out that when Brookes spoke with their representative and told them what we were doing, they donated two free of charge."

While the Lions club's activities have been curtailed to a large degree by COVID-19 restrictions, members have still been busy.

The club provided a barbecue for 100-year celebrations at the Sun Pharma factory.

Club members are also continuing to take their turn delivering meals on wheels throughout Port Fairy.

Some handy club members have also undertaken woodwork projects, including making raised garden bed boxes.
