Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service 2014
People are being urged to nominate community groups and volunteers who have made a genuine difference to their local area.
The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service, a unique UK national honour, was created over a decade ago by Her Majesty to mark the Golden Jubilee in 2002 to recognise the outstanding contributions made to local communities by groups of volunteers. It has an equivalent status for voluntary groups as the MBE has for individuals.
