An initiative led by WBro John Bull, ProvJGW of Old Northamptonian Lodge No 5694 and coordinated by WBro Tony Potter of Kingsley Lodge No 2431, has played a substantial part in funding the purchase of much needed ECG equipment for the new Heart Unit at Northampton General Hospital.
A number of Northampton Lodges made donations in aid of the Heart Unit Appeal. These donations were matched by the Provincial Grand Charity resulting in a total of £8,500 being raised.

On Thursday, 27 August, 2009, the PGM, RWBro Barrie Hall, presented the cheque for £8,500 to the Northampton General Hospital Cardiac Services Manager, Julie Mason and its CEO, Paul Forden, who expressed their sincere appreciation of this very generous donation and the continuing support of Freemasons.
