British Empire Medal for NHS Ayrshire & Arran Spiritual Care Administrator and our Trustee and Secretary Susan Robertson!
Susan Robertson has been awarded an Order of the British Empire Medal (BEM), announced as part of the King’s Birthday Honours List 2024.
Quoted from Ayrshire Daily News:
"The BEM acknowledges Susan’s work as a member of the Spiritual Care Team here
at NHS Ayrshire & Arran, as well as her contribution as a Volunteer Trustee and
Community Administrator at the Catrine Games Hall.
The Spiritual Care Team offers a confidential support and care service for patients,
relatives, visitors and staff, including religious and non-religious spiritual support and
bereavement guidance."
Reacting to the news, Susan said: “I was totally unaware that my name had been put
forward for the award and was in shock when I received a letter from the Cabinet
Office. At first I thought it was a joke and then messaged Andy Gillies who confirmed
it was real.
“Keeping the secret for a month was the hardest part. I feel very honoured and proud
that I was picked to receive the British Empire Medal. I am privileged to be working in
such a great team and I am thankful to them all.”
Well Done Susan!!
