Today at Buckingham Palace, The Queen presented The Queen’s Anniversary Prizes for higher and further education, the highest National Honour awarded to UK colleges and universities. Since its inception in 1993, a total of 318 prizes have been awarded to 86 universities and 59 further education colleges.
This year's recipients represent a diverse range of initiatives and projects that have made significant contributions to education and society. Among them is an animal welfare initiative that has set new standards in the field, pioneering chemistry research that has the potential to revolutionize industries, and a project aimed at encouraging 16-18-year-olds to continue their education and pursue their aspirations.
