The Lord-Lieutenant was delighted to attend the SERFCA Lord-Lieutenant Awards, celebrating the achievements of outstanding individuals across the county. Lady Colgrain congratulated all award-winners for their remarkable dedication and service, praising the volunteer ethos demonstrated by Reservists, Cadets, and Adult Volunteers alike.



The Lord-Lieutenant highlighted the vital role of the Reserves in national security and the importance of community and employer support in enabling their service. She also emphasised the need to encourage more Adult Volunteers to support the Cadet Forces, ensuring more young people can benefit from the opportunities they offer.



Special thanks were extended to 579 Field Squadron, 101 (City of London) Engineer Regiment (EOD&S), and to SERFCA for organising the event. The Lord-Lieutenant also warmly welcomed the new 2025 Lord-Lieutenant’s Cadets and thanked last year’s Cadets for their outstanding service.
