Honour (The Knight Archetype) » Erik Thor's MBTI Types The orders are now awarded mainly to civilians and service personnel. The last three of these are perhaps the most well-known and certainly the most anticipated when honours are announced as this is where those in areas such as sport or the arts will be honoured. The order has a civil and military division. The Order takes its name from the symbolic bathing, which in former times was often part of the preparation of a candidate for knighthood. Therefore, Queen Victoria instituted the Royal Victorian Order as a personal award for services performed on her behalf. Today this honour is still awarded in recognition of services to the royal family. The Royal Victorian Medal, which has three grades — gold, silver and bronze — is a circular medal, which is attached to the ribbon of the Order. It is possible for one to hold both awards. It is said that Florence Nightingale suggested to Queen Victoria the founding of this decoration. Joanne Swaine. Area Branch manager, Leeds Credit Union.

  • Education Committee Recruitment Candidate Pack
    Independent Member Honours Independent Committee CANDIDATE INFORMATION PACK Closing date for this post is: Friday 16 July 2021 Applications should be sent to: [email protected] Prime Minister's strategic priorities for the honours system The work of the independent honours committees is guided by the Prime Minister’s priorities. Mr Johnson reaffirmed that honours should be awarded ‘merit first’ – to those who give service above and beyond – and not to those who are just doing their job. Honours are not to reward longevity in a role, seniority or age. In supporting the Government’s levelling up agenda, the Prime Minister would like to see representation from the length and breadth of the UK, reflecting the extraordinary contributions made across every part of this country, with a real focus in recognising parts of the country often overlooked. In awarding honours, the Prime Minister would like to see individuals who have provided outstanding service with clear and specific examples of how their results have delivered real change to people’s lives or had a positive impact on the country. Individuals must represent values which reflect the UK and recognise the exceptional role the UK plays in the world. He would like to see the system especially recognise those: ● innovators and entrepreneurs who create thriving businesses and deliver growth across the country and export to new markets ● individuals who are unleashing our potential in emerging sectors, striving to find new technologies, deliver a cleaner environment
