In 2015 Richard’s contribution to and achievements in education within the SNU were recognised when he became the first person to be awarded the SNU Northern District Council Education Award.

In 2019 Richard was ordained as Minister of the SNU meaning that he is able to deliver services such as weddings, funerals and naming services, as well as supporting and developing the work and profile of the SNU in this official capacity.  Richard's ministerial work also means that he supports individuals in a pastoral capacity, this includes chaplaincy work in places such as hospitals and prisons.

The development of others in mediumship and Spiritualism is one of Richard’s passions. He regularly delivers workshops/training within Spiritualist Churches and has led and supported development groups and circles.
