Tribute – Perry Davies

On behalf of Burnham Lions Club, we were saddened to hear of the passing to higher service on 5^th February 2021, of our esteemed friend Perry Davies.

Perry epitomised the values of a sense of community with his unstinting passion & dedication in ensuring that Burnham Park Hall was at the forefront of Burnham activities.

This was vividly displayed with his support & dedication over many years, playing a key role with the success of Lions Christmas Fayre & Parade evenings. Burnham Park Hall were the focal point of the early evening music & dance entertainment on the green, before the Parade, Lighting up the Village in fine style, on these occasions.

It was my pleasure to award Perry in January 2019, fittingly at Burnham Park Hall with Lions Centennial Certificate of Appreciation, signed by our Patron HRH Countess of Wessex. A glass plaque for Burnham Park Hall was also presented, as a recognition of their fine contribution to the community of Burnham. We are especially indebted for their close support & partnership with Burnham Lions Club, during these years.

We extend our sincere condolences to his family & friends.

Past President, Burnham Lions Club CIO. 

Prostate Cancer check at home – finger prick test kits now available

Prostate cancer generally affects men over 50 and is rare in younger men. It’s the most common type of cancer in men. Around 37,000 men in the UK are diagnosed with prostate cancer each year.

It differs from most other cancers in the body, in that small areas of cancer within the prostate are very common and may stay dormant (inactive) for many years.

As it is not possible currently to hold Prostate Cancer Awareness days, Burnham Lions are working with the Graham Fulford Trust to enable men to conduct the test in the comfort of their own homes to check for early signs of possible Prostate Cancer. The kits are the same as used by the NHS.

It’s thought that about half (50%) of all men over 50 may have cancer cells in their prostate, and 8 out of 10 (80%) men over 80 have a small area of prostate cancer. Most of these cancers grow very slowly and so, particularly in elderly men, are unlikely to cause any problems.

In a small proportion of men, prostate cancer can grow more quickly and in some cases may spread to other parts of the body, particularly the bones.

To order your kit please register by clicking the yellow button below and register.

How much does it cost?

There is a cost but well worth it for your peace of mind. The total cost is £22.99 to include delivery and return postage.

Recognition for local COVID19 heroes!

Lion President Phil presenting our final Certificate of Appreciation to local Covid19 hero Paul Kelly. The club was delighted to award the certificates to Paul and also Kim Wheatley of Woodstock Coffee House and Michelle Kelly (Michelle's Mobile Catering), for the amazing job they did in providing free meals to local people whilst they were shielding. Over 13 weeks this amounted to thousands of meals, and we were proud to be able to do our bit by being one of the groups sponsoring this effort.
