Dressed as bees, they took part in the annual
Lions Charities Walk, to raise funds and awareness of the Friends of the Earth
Bee Cause.
Bees are essential for pollinating our
crops as, well as honey production, and have been in decline over recent years.
Likely reasons for the decline in bee numbers include disease, loss of habitat
and flowers, and the use of certain pesticides.
The circular walk, passing through bluebell
woods, open fields and past Igtham Moat, began and ended at Shipbourne village
hall.
It was a fun day out for all involved, especially as the sun shone! Over £100 was raised for the Bee Cause.
