Steve Cenci, healthcare managing director at Compass Group UK & Ireland, wrote about Anna in a company blog in September reflecting on the pandemic.

“Anna has been instrumental during this time, bringing her expertise and sharing it across the NHS,” he said.

“Her role is to develop standard operating procedures in line with the cleaning requirements of hospitals and assess what’s needed to deliver it, such as new technology and products, and importantly advise on safe and effective implementation.

“Over the past few months, people have seen how important cleaning is in reducing the spread of illness and infection and Anna is in a unique position, working collaboratively to support the development of new cleaning standards.”

She has worked for the Compass Group for 24 years.

Cambridge Rape Crisis Centre was set up as a confidential helpline in 1982 by a small group of local women.

It was a response to a growing awareness of sexual violence against women and girls, and the need to provide a safe space.

This gave many women their first chance to talk openly about their experiences of rape, sexual assault, childhood sexual abuse and other forms of violence.

It also meant they could support each other in their recovery and healing.

“Cambridge Rape Crisis Centre has been here throughout lockdown and we will continue to be here as restrictions ease,” says Norah. “We are doing everything we can to safeguard our services now and for the future.”

Two years ago, Norah was awarded an honorary fellowship from Anglia Ruskin in recognition of her work at Cambridge Rape Crisis Centre.

A goalball enthusiast from the Fens who has been named on the New Year’s Honours List believes there is still more work to be done to develop the sport.

Emma Evans MBE from March will be recognised for her services to goalball and to athletes with visual impairments since getting more involved with the sport in 2015.

Since helping to launch the Fen Tigers goalball team five years ago, Emma has played, coached and refereed, as well as taking part in fundraising initiatives and promoting goalball within the civil service.

Emma, inspired to get involved with goalball after her son started playing while at the Royal National College for the Blind, has made her mark off the court, too.

Over the last two years, she has secured £80,000 in funding for Goalball UK, the sport’s governing body.

She has also promoted the sport as a civil servant through the Civil Service Visual Network, which aims to address and increase awareness of visual impairment issues across the civil service.

On the court, Emma, who led the Fen Tigers to international success in Malmo last year, has guided them to become the first British team to feature in the European Super League for 2021, but she does not want to stop there.

She qualified as a nurse in 1996 and has a degree and masters in public health.

Sally has worked across the acute, community, social care and health and justice sectors and her current role within NHS England’s nursing directorate is to support the quality improvement, system leadership, direct commissioning and assurance functions of the organisation.

Cambs Times: Judith Martha Tsitsi MachiwenyikaJudith Martha Tsitsi Machiwenyika (Image: ROYAL PAPWORTH HOSPITAL)

Judith, known as Judy, is chair of Royal Papworth Hospital's Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) Network.

She was born in Zimbabwe where she did her general nurse training and later moved to South Africa where she also trained as a midwife.

Judy was one of the nurses recruited by the NHS during the recruitment drive of overseas nurses by the then Labour government between the years of 1997 to 2006.

She started her career in the NHS in 1999 and has been at Royal Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation Trust for 21 years.

In 2018, she became the Trust’s Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) Network chair.

She was later promoted to a nurse consultant post in the ALERT and surgical advanced nurse practitioner teams and is one of only five nurse consultants at Royal Papworth Hospital.

She said that Papworth Hospital has made some important changes in the last two years.

For example, tighter measures have been put in place to ensure that members of staff from the BAME background are not being disproportionately represented in formal disciplinary procedures “echoing the issues that have been highlighted by professional bodies and the Workforce Race Equality standards data.

“Now, whenever a staff member from a BAME background is being put forward for disciplinary, the case is reviewed by the director of workforce and I use a pre-disciplinary tool to make sure the case meets the criteria for disciplinary and is handled fairly.”

Samuel Webb, from Cambridge, for services to architecture

Sam is an advisor to the All-Party Parliamentary Fire & Rescue Group and founder member of the President of the RIBA's Expert Advisory Group investigating the Grenfell Tower Fire.

From 2009 to 2013, he acted as an expert witness advising the three families of the three young women, and three small children, including a three-week-old baby, who died in the Lakanal House Fire, July 3, 2009 in Camberwell.

Until the Grenfell Tower fire, this was the worst peacetime fire in a post-war block of flats.

Between 1968 and 1988 he researched the construction of Ronan Point and other large panel system buildings.

His research led to the creative demolition of Ronan Point and the eight other LPS blocks on the Freemason's Road Estate in Newham London.

From 1968 he also advised Paul Foot of Private Eye and says that not only did their work ask searching questions about LPS construction and its suitability for high-rise buildings but they also uncovered the Poulson Affair.

Sylvia May Cundell, senior crown prosecutor at East of England, Crown Prosecution Service and from Huntingdon, for services to law and order

One of her most high-profile cases, and certainly one of the most unusual, was her handling of the CPS case against a man who collected more than 5,000 rare bird eggs in Norfolk.

The case, from two years ago, attracted international attention.

He was sentenced to 18 weeks in prison today and given a Criminal Behaviour Order of 10 years.

Sylvia Cundell remarked: “The laws against the taking of wild birds’ eggs are there for a reason - to protect species from decline.

"The CPS is committed to the robust prosecution of those who commit offences against protected wildlife.”

Andrew is an emergency response volunteer with the British Red Cross.

The 58-year-old, who joined the Red Cross seven years ago, was awarded the BEM for his voluntary services in Cambridgeshire during the Covid-19 response.

At the beginning of the charity’s Covid-19 response in the UK, it was Andy who stepped in to set up and manage the Cambridgeshire food distribution warehouse in the shell of a building.

From physically getting the building fit for use to briefing and leading a team of volunteers, Andy managed the first ever food delivery from 8am-8pm to make sure nothing was turned away.

Andy has volunteered over 500 hours since then, spending his days organising the warehouse and his evenings in supermarkets buying specific items that have been requested by members of his community.

“I thought it was a hoax,” says Andy of the honour. “It was about 7pm at night when the email came through and I thought it was spam.”

Once he was over the initial shock, Andy felt honoured and humbled with his nomination.

“I don’t feel I deserve it,” he says. “As a volunteer, I’m happy to get stuck in and do what needs to be done. None of us do it for the recognition.”

The first person he told however was his mother.

“She was a bit down in the run up to Christmas so it was lovely to be able to give her some good news,” he says.

Andy is also excited to share the news with the rest of his volunteering team in the warehouse.

“Everyone works so hard and there is still so much more to do that this honour will give us all a real boost.”

Since March 2020, the British Red Cross has reached over 1.5 million people in the UK providing food, medicines, emotional and wellbeing support, transport to and from hospital as well as providing a range of education resources online as we continue to support the most vulnerable communities through the crisis.

British Red Cross chief executive Mike Adamson is delighted that Andy is getting recognition for his work during this difficult time:

“Andy is a shining example of the exemplary staff and volunteers we are lucky to have to support the vital work of the Red Cross.

"He is a true humanitarian and works tirelessly to support vulnerable people when they need it most, especially during the past year.

"We are profoundly fortunate to have him in the team. He is a true ambassador for the Red Cross and we are delighted to see him honoured in this way.

“I would like to pass on my congratulations on this well-deserved honour and thank Andy for his continued passion for helping to make a difference.”

In 2019 children’s doctor, Tamsin Holland Brown, showcased an innovative hearing device she created to The Duke of York during an official visit to Cambridge.

Dr Holland Brown, who works for Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust explained: “In nine out of 10 sufferers, Glue Ear clears up within a year.

"Some children are unable to hear well while they have glue ear and this can in turn affect their speech, language, listening and learning abilities.

“When my daughter experienced glue ear in 2014, I could see she was struggling.

"I wanted to find a solution for the many other children being affected by this common condition.

“In my own time, I set up the Hear Glue Ear research project and put together a cost-effective headset and microphone.

Cambs Times: Dr Tamsin Mary Holland BrownDr Tamsin Mary Holland Brown (Image: TWITTER)

"The headset uses a bone conduction transducer which transmits sound as a vibration, through the cheekbones directly to the inner ear, missing out the eardrum and any glue ear.”

Using bluetooth technology, the headset can connect to a small microphone attached to the lapel of a parent or teacher enabling the child to hear everything being said.

Over the last 10 years Tamsin has been working as community paediatrician with a special interest in audiology, first in Suffolk and now Cambridge.

She trained at St George’s Medical School, London, and has worked at St Thomas’s, Guys’, the Middlesex/UCL and abroad at The Royal Perth Hospital, and Sydney Childrens Hospital.

"Being in the fire service is such a rewarding career in itself. I've been lucky enough to work with some great people who have helped me along the way.

"One thing that has always stayed with me is how different each day is, whether a firefighter on a watch, a station commander or chief fire officer, no day is the same.

"This year has certainly shown that. I thought I had encountered most things, then I found myself in the midst of a global pandemic trying to keep an emergency service operational.

"I wouldn't have even been considered for this honour without the help and support of the great team I work with at Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service.

"I will receive the medal on their behalf and wear it with great pride."

Councillor Kevin Reynolds, chairman of the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Fire Authority, said: "I am delighted that Chris has received this honour.

"Chris has provided outstanding leadership throughout his career in Cambridgeshire, which has been particularly prevalent during the pandemic.

"This has certainly been a contributing factor in us being recognised as one of the top performing services in the country."

Cambs Times: Stuart Paul GibbonsStuart Paul Gibbons (Image: LE MARK WEBSITE)

On his company’s website Stuart offers some insight into his likes (spending time with family and friends, wine, being able to say ‘I made that’ and finding time for reading).

He also some dislikes such as “wearing back-to-front baseball caps (and then squinting at the sun), my own mistakes, not having a purpose every day, unruly children”.

What’s the best advice you’ve ever been given? "The word ‘interesting’ is neither ‘yes’ or ‘no’ and it buys you time to make the right decision.

He says people often ask him “Why did you start a business like Le Mark.

“Its's a really simple answer, necessity. It all happened very fast, from being a part of a business family to going solo happened within one week!

“However aged 29, anything was possible and I saw it as an opportunity to not only provide for my family, but to test and unlock a new entrepreneurial part of me.”

Thirty-four years later he says “Le Mark is still growing, evolving and as an entity is something far more than I ever anticipated.

"It has its own family, regional & political voice, plus a unique sense of social awareness.

“As a manufacturer and supplier, it has been an integral part of many national and global events.

"It has a wonderful group of committed sales partners and suppliers on all continents.

"It has grown from being ‘just’ a business, it is now an entity in its own right and continues to exceeded even my wildest dreams”.
