Goddard Legacy Society We were sorry to cancel Goddard Day this year , which would have been held two days after HM The Queen died . In its place , we will be holding a reception in London on 20 th April 2023 ( See Dates for Your Diary page 44 ), which we hope will be well-attended by members old and new .
