The British Citizen Award | The Peoples Honour
The BCAh category is typically for an individual who has promoted healthcare in any or all of its forms. The individual may have devoted time, energy or effort into helping the community retain or improve its health awareness, may have lobbied to build new facilities or created innovative approaches to healthcare education. It includes any individual working in the healthcare sector both private and public, from porters to physicians and carers to caterers. Individuals who save lives, change lives and prolong lives are suitable for this category. People who brighten the days of those who are unwell or unable to care for themselves are often deserving of praise and recognition.
I'd like to say 'Thanks' to everyone at the Palace of Westminster, Church House. House of Lords, the British Citizen Awards team, Lord Dholakia, Dame Mary Perkins, Deborah Darlington and Matt Albright of Rouge Traders for making the day special, and remember as us Scot's like to say.... "It was pure dead brilliant".
I was overwhelmed with the award and will continue my volunteering for hopefully another 20 years at least!
Looking forward to what the future holds..........
