Mayor of Kettering Councillor Scott Edwards will be unveiling a plaque in
Meeting Lane to commemorate The Great Meeting. The Society has begun serious fundraising for heritage blue plaques around the town starting with a “100 Club”. Anyone can join this opportunity to give and also have a chance to gain. The Society keeps 50% and three lucky participants share the other 50%. Annual membership of the Society is £15 a year and to join the “100 Club” pay £1 a month, for a minimum of 6 months. Members can have as many numbers as they wish as can be seen in the following.
