We are delighted to announce that Maureen, our Co-Founder, Patron and Trustee, has been awarded an MBE in the King’s Birthday Honours, 2024 (announced today 15th June).

“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. Your generosity and kindness have meant that we have been able to continue Sean’s work in Africa despite the tragic events that befell him and our family. As a result, many destitute and impoverished children in Africa have benefited.

The essence of Sean lives on in us today more surely than his death, to keep his vision alive and The Sean Devereux Children’s Fund continues to help less fortunate Children in Africa ” said Maureen.
