THE LAMBETH LIGHTS HAVE ARRIVED!
 
Last spring, the Rotary Club of London-Lambeth kicked off a community-wide fund-raising project to replace the (tired) Main Street festive lights. Within weeks, Lambeth-and-area businesses, community groups and individuals came together and raised thousands of dollars to fund not only the newly designed fixtures but also their initial installation costs. 
 
The lights, sourced within Canada, have arrived and have passed their tests. Keep an eye out for the lights on Main St. shortly after Remembrance Day (November 11). 
 
Congratulations and thanks to the many generous donors and to the Lambeth Rotarians who helped make this happen.
 
Merry Christmas, Lambeth!   CLICK READ MORE to see list of Donors
 
Our club was very pleased to have Joe Sullivan inducted as our newest member at our meeting on October 23, 2018.
 
Joe was sponsored by Drew Annable, and participating in the induction was our Assistant District Governor Nancy Lovelock and President Geoff Faul.
 
Welcome Joe!
 
 
Stan Waring was welcomed into the Rotary Club of London-Lambeth on August 14, 2018!
 
We were lucky enough to have our esteemed past DG Doug Burnard in attendance to perform the induction along with Club President Geoff!
 
Welcome Stan!
 
WELCOME NEW MEMBERS BOB AND ADAM!!
 
Our July 10 meeting was a special one - the Club welcomed two new members, Bob Boyce and Adam Walden!
 
Assistant District Governor Sue Storie joined Club President Geoff Faul for the induction.
 
We look forward to getting to know Bob and Adam better and look forward to the start of their journeys here with the Rotary Club of London-Lambeth.
 
 
 
At our regular club meeting on July 24, the members and guests were treated to an update talk from L'Arche London's executive director Marietta Drost.
 
Marietta provided the Club with information about the activities taking place in the new Lambeth Gathering Place, including the Thursday morning Café that all are welcome to visit.
 
Club President Geoff Faul, and indeed the entire club, was pleased to present a cheque to L'Arche London for $1,000 in order to assist with improvements to sound baffling systems being installed. The Club had previously supported L'Arche with a $1,000 donation for the first part of those meeting room improvements, which had been successfully carried out through a combination of supporting donations, some hired know-how, and considerable volunteer effort to install.  And we are pleased to help again now!

Each year Lambeth Rotary honours a community member for his or her contributions to the community.  This Year we honour two members Pam Batzold and Lee Stitt.

Chief Duncan described Policing in London and the challenges that are faced by our community. London is a relatively safe city but we do have to an extent all the concerns of larger cities.

He emphasized that an ever increasing amount of police time is spent on dealing with citizens with mental problems.

Policing is a vital part of a cities needs and London’s Police force is one of the best.

 

Southdale Chapliancy is one of the efforts that we support.  Their directors are pleased to announce that on January 28, 2013 the Boards of Directors of the Limberlost Chaplaincy and the Southdale Chaplaincy unanimously agreed to unify effective April 1, 2013.  At that time, the new organization will be called the London Community Chaplaincy.
