Maurice Littlewood.
After 52 years dedicated volunteering service with the RNLI, and 37 years service with the Honley & Brockholes Branch, Maurice Littlewood stood down as Branch Chairman on the 31st December 2022.
Maurice has served in the post of Secretary and Chairman, and is also a Water Safety & Education Presenter. He has been a stalwart of the Branch and has attended practically every fundraising event and Branch Meeting since first joining the Branch in March 1986.
Although having stepped down from any Branch Committee roles, Maurice has told us that “we haven’t got rid of him yet”! 😉 Maurice is also a member of the Macclesfield Branch, which is closer to his home, so no doubt that our loss is their gain.
Maurice was doing a R.N.L.I. Presentation to a Luncheon Club at Greenhead Masonic Hall in January 2023, and was surprised when our Branch Acting Chairman, Andrew Ingham, came along and presented Maurice with a framed Certificate of Thanks signed by the RNLI Chief Executive, Mark Dowie.
Thank you, Maurice, for your many years of dedicated service to the RNLI, we are all very grateful for your help and support.

His valued contributions I am sure has contributed to help save many lives.
