Some Disability-Related New Years Honours
My congratulations to, among many others, these special people who have recieved New Years Honours for reasons related to disability and DisAbility:
Susan Banton, who founded the charity Steps in 1980, which now offers help and support to thousands of families and individuals with lower limb disorders, recieves an MBE.
There is a CBE for Christopher Cohen, former Chairman of the Athletics Sports Assembly Executive Committee at the International Paralympic Committee and the recognised world authority in disability athletics.
Robert Douglas Greig, Chief executive of the National Development Team for Inclusion, also recieves a CBE for services to People with Special Needs.
The list is long and complicated, so I’m sure, and I hope, that there are some others who have recieved honours for similar reasons. If you know of anyone I’ve missed, please name them in the comments below.
