An official ceremony at Buckingham Palace saw a 澳门六合彩开奖记录 director who has overseen major catering sustainability progress receive an MBE from Prince William, Duke of Cambridge.

Matthew White, Director of Campus Commerce at the University and a leading figure in public sector catering, was presented with the MBE in person on 24 June after being named in the New Year’s Honours.

Mr White said: “To be invested into this great order alongside Knights, Dames and other people who have given such great service to our country was very humbling indeed.

“I was so blown away in the first instance to have been nominated for the award, but to actually walk through the great staterooms of the palace and mingle with all of the other recipients of the awards was mind-blowing.”

Mr White said: “I will never, ever forget that wonderful day and I will wear my MBE with pride, honouring all my wonderful team and all we have achieved.”
