District Chairman
District Chairman
Welcome
Hello from D127! Regrettably the IW Year of 2026-7 sees us for the first time without a District Chairman. However, two members came forward as First Vice District Chairman at our District Assembly in July who will be at the helm to lead us into 2027-8 so we are now able to look forward to the future. During this current year the District Executive have jointly agreed to take on the duties of District Chairman. We have experienced problems in finding a venue for our District Meetings in 2025-6 as a result of our usual venue going into voluntary liquidation which has resulted in the Executive having to try new places and also trying to make District Meetings a little less formal and at the same time making them more fun in the hope we can attract more members to attend these meetings.
Social Links
Who we support
Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance
and
Yorkshire Air Ambulance
The Executive have agreed to continue to support Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance and the Yorkshire Air Ambulance including the collection of milk bottle tops.
International Charity
Our International Charity is The Busoga Trust, which brings clean, safe water to rural communities in Uganda.
Support will also be given to President Pat's chosen charity, Papyrus www.papyrus-uk.org
The International charity remains as Mary's Meals
There is gender inequality in education around the world, but by providing daily meals in school, we remove one hugely significant barrier for girls, giving them opportunities that they otherwise may not have.
