Julian Filochowski, director of CAFOD for 21 years until 2003, became a Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George.

Jenny Wood Allen from Dundee has been awarded the MBE. She is 92 and has run the London Marathon 16 times and raised £340,000 for charity.

Betty Barker has received the MBE for her voluntary work in an Oxfam shop in Clitheroe.

National Deaf Children’s Society Chair Gareth Jones has been awarded an MBE for his 30 years of work on behalf of deaf children.

Last but certainly not least, congratulations to Tim Berners-Lee, the physicist who invented the World Wide Web for being awarded a knighthood for “services to the Internet.” Without Tim and his non-commercial, open standards approach, there would probably be no Internet fundraising, and this site would almost certainly not exist.
