Members of Lions Clubs from different parts of the British Isles have been revealed as the first of 24 faces featured in a new campaign to champion local community volunteering.
One in two people in the British Isles volunteer, mostly to help others in their local communities. From small towns to major cities, in the countryside and around the coast, the work of volunteers – including 10,000 Lions members – make a real difference.
