wa lions hall of fame
The WA Lions Hall of Fame exists to honour Lions who have gone above and beyond in serving their local communities.
Induction is not about titles or positions—it is about a lifetime of selfless giving, leadership, and commitment to making a real difference where it matters most: in the lives of people around them.
These members embody the core values of Lionism—service, compassion, and integrity—through countless hours of volunteer work, community projects, and initiatives that improve quality of life.
Their impact is felt locally, but their example inspires globally.
The inaugural inductee was added in 2012.
An asterisk (*) denotes members who are deceased.
