At its pre-Christmas meeting on Tuesday 3rd December 2024 and following a Notice of Motion given at the previous meeting in October, the Chicheley Chapter’s Charity Steward, E Comp Geoff Duff, proposed and the MEZ, E Comp L Clark, seconded, that the Chapter donate the sum of £500 to the Northamptonshire Health Charitable Fund Reg Charity No 11658702, with a request to the Charity that this was to be ring-fenced for the Skylark Children’s Ward, Neonatal Unit at Kettering General Hospital (KGH). The reason for nominating this particular charity for our support was because the Chapter’s outstanding Principal Sojourner, Comp Andy McGovern, works at KGH on the Skylark Ward. Comp Andy was also appointed Mayor of Thrapston in 2024 and had specified that the Charity would be his “chosen charity” during his year of Mayoral office.
