Kettering General Hospital Chaplain receives official licence from the Bishop of Brixworth
Rev Keri Noddings at Kettering General Hospital was officially licensed on September 15th by the Bishop of Brixworth.
Rev Keri is part of KGH’s eight-strong multi-faith Spiritual and Pastoral Care Team and works alongside its 30 dedicated team of spiritual and pastoral care volunteers.
She received her Church of England licence from the Bishop of Brixworth, The Rt Rev John Holbrook on 15th September. This is one of Bishop John's last services before he retires at the end of the month.
The licence allows Keri to officiate at services and ceremonies in hospital.
Keri said 'I left my post over 7 years ago as an NHS Speech & Language Therapist. Since then the call back to the NHS has continued and I am thrilled to be taking this step today back into a hospital environment. I feel very honored to be serving my vocation and calling within KGH.'
Mike Corcoran, Lead Chaplain said “I am delighted to see that Keri has been officially licensed. She has settled in well to the team and I hope she will continue to enjoy serving our hospital community including both patients and staff.”
