Former Trustee awarded an MBE
We are thrilled to report that our former trustee, Christabel Flight, The Lady Flight, was awarded an MBE in the New Year Honours List last week. Christabel was one of the earliest supporters and trustees of the Sir Simon Milton Foundation and the architect of Silver Sunday and our annual Tea Dance. Through her longstanding work with the Sir Simon Milton Foundation, as well as her local government and other charitable work, she has made a huge difference to thousands of elderly people in Westminster and beyond. Here is Christabel, pictured at our Tea Dance last month at the Grosvenor House Hotel, with Matthew Sykes, our former Chief Executive. Congratulations on this very well-deserved honour, Christabel!
