LORD PETRE, the Lord Lieutenant of Essex, welcomed selected guests to the launch of the Do the Honours for Essex campaign at Ingatestone Hall. The campaign is to encourage more Essex people who go that extra mile to be nominated for the Queen’s Honours awards and aims to promote nominations for awards for those people who make a real difference to the community.
Lord Petre, who is the Queen’s representative in the county, said: ‘Honours recognise the achievements of ordinary people who do extraordinary things. We want to see more successful nominations for Essex people whose efforts have been of significant benefit to the community. This is your chance to say thank you and Do the Honours for Essex.’
