Bude and Stratton mourns the passing of Godfrey Harrison BEM, a respected Royal Navy veteran.
A former Royal Navy Seaman Gunner, Godfrey was a much-respected member of the community and gave many years of service to both the Royal Naval Association and Royal British Legion locally. He also played an important role in Bude and Stratton’s Remembrance commemorations and the annual Poppy Appeal.
His contribution to the community was recognised with the British Empire Medal in the 2024 New Year Honours.
A memorial service will take place at Kilkhampton Church, Cornwall at 1400 on 15th October Standards are most welcome.
Godfrey Harrison was both a founder member of Bude RNA and a Chairman/President of Bude RBL.
