Cambridge has lost a man with ‘imaginative creativity'

Libby Totton Reporter from Cambridge Edition

Noel Johnstone, 1934 -2023

He wasn't a natural politician but he stood for Parliament. He built a crystal radio set as a child and later built a speed boat in his bedroom. And he lived all but just over two years of his life on a Cambridge farm.

Kelvyn Eglinton reflects on this time as CEO of Momentum Waikato...

As the Waikato Regional Theatre rises out of the ground, the regional endowment fund approaches $44million while supporting an ever-growing range of causes, and Tirohanga Houchen Wellbeing Space begins delivering services to the community, I have been asked to reflect on which of Momentum Waikato’s achievements I am most proud of from my six years as its CEO.

My sense of satisfaction is not simply about the specific projects. It comes from seeing what is possible when a whole bunch of people are mobilised by the belief that philanthropy done differently can create real positive change for our community.
