Lynn Air Training Corps cadets met Borough Mayor Fred Juniper in September 1995 for a top-flight presentation.
The Loke Road-based cadets, all aged between 13 and 18, were awarded certificates for passing their leading cadet exams. Three of the teenagers received a trophy they won in an orienteering competition earlier in the year, while Oliver Thurley scooped Cadet of the Year. In this picture, Mr Juniper presents the shield to Oliver Thurley, joined by the other cadets and officers.
Pilot Officer Debbie Banks said the cadets enjoyed meeting Mr Juniper and added: “He had a few words to say to each of them and I think he was an ex-cadet himself by the way he was talking.” Photo: MLNF-950971

ALL OUR YESTERDAYS:
September 2001: One of the many events held in the area for the World’s Biggest Coffee Morning was at the Macmillan unit at Lynn’s Queen Elizabeth Hospital, bringing together patients, staff, family and former patients and was expected to raise more than £1,000. Around 150 people attended in the palliative day care lounge. Photo: MLNF-09PT09410

The themes are good causes.
September 2001: Michelle Sherwood Cancer Fund committee members look on as their chairman, Ian Sherwood, receives a painting from the group’s president, SW Norfolk MP Gillian Shephard, to mark his retirement after ten years. Ian had led the charity since it was founded in 1991 in memory of his wife, a nurse at Lynn’s Queen Elizabeth Hospital, who died of a rare form of cancer at the age of 25. The fund was raising about £3,500 annually to buy equipment for cancer patients. MLNF-0109244

September 2007: More than 1,000 people took part in the Cancer Research UK 10k run at Sandringham Estate and there were high hopes that more than £70,000 would be raised. In glorious weather, around 120 walkers raised money for Marie Curie Cancer Care with their own charity walk through the royal woodlands.

MLNF-07PT09451September 2009: Ian Ashford, owner of Castle Costumes in Tower Street, Lynn, sent a box of fun gifts to raise the morale of air crews and troops serving in Afghanistan. He posted off different costumes, wigs, and fancy dress accessories and is seen here with Squadron Leader Sue Mitchell-Gears from RAF Marham. MLNF-09AM09406September 2009: Lynn mum-of-three Dominique Wilson-Smith-Anderson hoped her charity sky dive in sexy undies would not only raise a few amused eyebrows but also a large sum for charity. She undertook her 10,000ft parachute jump for Action Aid, in memory of the son of a close friend who had died at the age of 22. MLNF-09AM09300September 2009: Lynn News readers were proving their mettle by pushing the Special Care Baby Appeal through the £130,000 barrier. It meant that just another £20,000 was needed to reach the target. After their baby Ethan received life-saving care at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Lynn, parents Ian and Rebecca Guymer raised £700 for the appeal. Ian had asked for donations rather than gifts for his 30th birthday and held a charity auction. One-year-old Ethan, his mum and dad are pictured presenting the cheque to staff nurses Simone Nuccoll, left, and Sophie Smith. MLNF-09PT09291
