Northfield Chapter RC No 1022

On Monday 9th June 2025, the Inspector General and the District Recorder received a warm welcome to the Chapter for the Enthronement of III.˙.Bro M Hardeman 30°. 

On his entry into the Chapter, the IG was welcomed by Ill.˙.Bro J Pritchard 18°, who continued to Act as MWS for the Enthronement, and enquired of the IG, ”Do you want to do some work?” The IG gave a simple and straight forward reply – “No chance”……..!

With the MWS still on his medical learning and development travels ‘Down Under’, and with a return to this country profiled for early in 2026, the Chapter continued in the very safe hands of Ill.˙.Bro J Pritchard 30°. And what a delightful, confident and entertaining Enthronement he delivered! Ill.˙.Bro M Hardeman 30°, was Enthroned as Sovereign of the Chapter with great skill and ability, a testament to the hard work and dedication of Ill.˙.Bro Pritchard. 

Ill.˙.Bro Hardeman proceeded to appoint and invest his Officers in a faultless and impressive manner, using all of his own skill, ability and experience which he has developed.

The task of presenting the Immediate Past Sovereign Jewel to the now Past Sovereign, E&P Bro M Gohill 18°, will be carried over to their next meeting in January 2026. 

Members of the Chapter then took part in delivering an interesting presentation titled ‘The Words of the 18°. The presentation was broken down into 6 manageable parts allowing for 6 members of the Chapter to each deliver a portion of an excellent and hugely informative paper.  

On completion of an excellent Third Point, the MWS closed the Chapter, and the rest of the evening spent in Harmony and Brotherly Love in the refectory, enjoying yet another delightful evening meal with the main course consisting of cold meats, salad & hot potatoes.

Next meeting – MON 12 JAN 26.
