Medowie resident and Year 12 student Ella Oldham has met with Lions members several times and is very keen to see a local Leo Club established. “Starting a Leo Club can be really exciting for several reasons,” Ms Oldham stated. “First, it’s an opportunity to build a community of young people committed to service and leadership. “The Leo Club can become a platform for members to develop valuable skills, like teamwork, project management, and public speaking, all while making a positive impact in their community.” Ms Oldham believes a Leo Club would allow young people to foster connections and friendships with people who share similar values and goals. “Plus, being part of a larger network of Leo Clubs and Lions Clubs around the world can provide incredible resources and support,” she said. “The prospect of seeing the tangible results of your efforts and knowing that you’re contributing to something bigger than yourself can be really motivating and fulfilling,” Ms Oldham continued. Leo Clubs are open to people of all backgrounds and abilities. There is no religious or political affiliation.
