The King’s 2025 Birthday Honours List includes seven Guernsey residents in what has been described as a ‘bumper crop’ of honours.
The group includes the Lieutenant Governor who has been awarded a Knighthood and his Aide-de-Camp Major Marco Ciotti, who is made a Lieutenant of the Royal Victorian Order.
Specsavers’ founder Doug Perkins is made a CBE for his services to business and trade.
Jurat Neil Hunter, Joanne Priaulx, and Dr Stephen Brennand Roper have all been awarded the MBE for their services to Alderney, neonatal care in Guernsey, and healthcare in Guernsey respectively.
Jon Le Page has been awarded the King’s Fire Service medal.
Announcing the ‘bumper crop’ of honours, the Bailiff said each award reflects the impact that each individual has had on our Bailiwick community.
“The number of locally-based recipients can properly be described as a ‘bumper crop’, recognising the impact each has made for the benefit of the communities of the Bailiwick,” said Sir Richard McMahon.
“It is wonderful that His Majesty has recognised each and every one of them, with such recognition paying tribute to what they have achieved in their respective fields. I congratulate them all.”
Meanwhile, there were six awards in Jersey, which you can read about here.
