The Lord-Lieutenant of Dorset, Mr Michael Dooley LVO MMs FRCOG, proudly hosted the annual Lord-Lieutenant of Dorset Awards ceremony at Thomas Hardy School, celebrating the remarkable contributions of young people and adult volunteers in the community.
Five outstanding young individuals were invested as Lord-Lieutenant’s Cadets for the forthcoming year.
One newly appointed cadet, who exemplifies leadership, dedication, and community spirit, was our own Leading Cadet Freya Kay from Poole Sea Cadets
In addition to the cadet investitures, the ceremony recognised the invaluable contributions of adult volunteers within the Reserve and Cadet Forces. Certificates of Meritorious Service were presented to several individuals for their outstanding service, while others received accolades for their long-standing commitment.
The ceremony, attended by family, friends, and community leaders, served as a poignant reminder of the positive impact these young leaders and dedicated volunteers have on Dorset.
