Leonard HallWe are very sad to report the death of our Vice President, Leonard Hall, at the age of 92. Leonard joined the NRA Committee in the early 1980s. He served as editor of the newsletter and as Community Voice representative during the 1990s. He was also road steward for Myrtleside Close for many years. His dear wife Betty, who predeceased him, was also a road steward for Green Lane. In 1999 he agreed to become Chairman for a year, despite already being in his eighties, tiding us over at a time when no-one was willing to take on the job. He then took the honorary title of Vice President until his death. Despite his physical frailty in later years, he was often to be seen zooming up Green Lane to the shops on his mobility scooter, and he made the effort to attend meetings in his wheelchair right up until his late eighties. Even when no longer able to get out so much, he retained a keen interest in all that NRA did. Welcome to the NRA website
Many of us enjoy living and working in Northwood, a thriving community with a strong local identity and situated close to both countryside and city. The purpose of the Northwood Residents' Association, established in 1966, is to maintain and develop a high standard of amenities and community spirit. The Association is run on strictly non-political lines and is open to all residents and businesses. An executive committee, elected at the Annual General Meeting, meets once a month, and each road has its own Road Steward. The executive committee conveys information to members in regular newsletters, at the Annual General Meeting, and with the wider community via this website and the local press. Action taken by the Association can often be more effective than that taken by an individual acting independently. The greater our membership, the stronger our voice in local affairs. If you are a resident of Northwood and not already a member we do hope you will join the Association. Visit the Application Form page of this website.
