This year’s New Year’s Honours List contains a range of people recognised for their
work for and in the voluntary sector.
Elizabeth Hoodless, executive director of 
Community Service Volunteers (CSV) and founder of the organisation in 1963, has 
been made a Dame for services to volunteering.

Rabbi Julia Neuberger, chief executive of healthcare charity the King’s Fund also
became a dame, as did Lady Pauline Harris, co-founder of the Philip and Pauline 
Harris Charitable Trust.

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

Hany El Banna, founder of Islamic Relief, received an OBE.

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.
