TDC Trustee Robert Awarded MBE
Submitted by tdc on 28 January, 2010 - 13:23.
We would like to congratulate one of our trustees, Robert Brown, who was awarded an MBE in the New Years Honours list. Robert was described as an "unsung hero" for his voluntary work in Bevendean. His work, of course, has never been unrecognised by us, and as for 'unsung', well we might have requested that he didn't sing at the staff and trustees Christmas party, but that's as far as it goes!
