Representatives from a number of local and national charitable organisations attended a presentation evening with members of the Braintree branch of Lions International to receive cheque donations from a number of Lions fund-raising activities throughout 2011.

First Stop Care Advice Centre , Crossroads Carers Support, Home Start Family Support, Essex Dementia Care, New Direction Residential and Resettlement Centre and Macmillan Cancer Support received cheques which amounted to £4,830 in total.
