We reported recently that Maureen had been awarded an MBE in the King’s Birthday Honours (June ‘24) and yesterday (16th October) she received the award from HRH Prince William.
Maureen with her much-deserved MBE
Accompanied on the day by Theresa, Tania and their families and friends, this special occasion was rounded off with a celebratory lunch.
As Maureen said when the award was made public, “I am shocked, humbled and deeply honoured to have been awarded the MBE. I accept it on behalf of the Fund, its dedicated trustees, past and present and the very many friends and family who have helped establish, run and support our charity over many years”.
This is a well-deserved award for Maureen and the Devereux family, whose resilience and energy continues to motivate us all to support the continued education of young people in Liberia.
