Chapel Notice Board
David Wilmot, the Friends’ Treasurer, has refurbished the Chapel notice board for the second time. A gap had opened between the wooden sections and with the help of his grandson, Lewie, the board has been reinstalled looking very smart again.

St George's Christmas Tree
Friends of the Chapel have been preparing for next Christmas!! The opportunity was taken to buy a half price tree in a pot from nearby Coolings Garden Centre. It has now been established in a half barrel planter and placed near the Garden of Remembrance. At Christmas time, it will be moved to the front of St George's Room, outside the Chapel and dressed with lights.

Changing themes
Very attractive displays are set up in the Chapel by two members of the Friends Committee. The displays reflect interesting news and events of the past. Above is a Christmas theme with articles from the 1940s.

The Strongest Link
(From the Facebook page of)
Now that the garden at Biggin Hill airport is finally open and the public are beginning to visit
PLEASE DO NOT CONFUSE
this garden with the Garden that has been in place for many years at The Strongest Link, RAF Biggin Hill.
The Garden sits alongside the the RAF Chapel of Remembrance, has always been open for visitors, has always been known as The Strongest Link and is definitely NOT part of a commercial airport.
The statue at the airport garden is indeed stunning and well worth a visit BUT, take a journey a further half mile down the road and visit the place that is The Strongest Link; you will know you have arrived when you pass through the gate pillars with their blue plaques that declare this place as The Strongest Link and walk or drive between the 2 Gate Guardians. Come and read some of the personal stories that have been shared over the years by those who served at RAF Biggin Hill, The Strongest Link.
