Exceptional Members Of Our Community
Suggest a Nomination
If you know someone who you would like to suggest for a nomination because you think they have undertaken outstanding voluntary service, or have otherwise made a difference in their community, then please send their name, address, age (if known) and a summary of their contribution to lordlieutenant@kent-lieutenancy.org.uk. Candidates for nominations are assessed in November with the successful nominees being written to in early January. Please note that nominations for Royal Garden Parties should remain confidential and possible nominee should not be made aware of their nomination.
As the number of candidates for nomination always exceeds the spaces allocated, regrettably we cannot guarantee a space at a Garden Party. However, if someone that you suggest is successfully nominated then we will try our utmost to secure an invitation for them at the earliest possible time.
We look forward to hearing from you and learning more about the exceptional members of our community.
