Rhymester 25 Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 I I was asked if my dad, Derek Chawner, was related to a Dennis Chawner. They were both in the Boys Brigade and also sadly deceased. Does anyone know where the 32nd Company was based? Apparently Dennis was in the Basford company. The picture above shows dad's membership card from when he was 12 and the Ambulance Certificate he received aged 15. He must have stayed longer as he used to take boys away to camps. I don't know what the badges were for: anyone? Andy Chawner 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,435 Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 The 32nd Nottingham Boys Brigade today seem to be based at Nuthall. http://bb.nuthallmethodistchurch.org.uk/ No idea if that was the case back in the 40s. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He started it up again in Nuthall in the 1970s and he kept the number. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
