Queens Award Presentation

The Rotary Club of Carluke is pleased to be the first and only Rotary Club to be awarded with The Queen's Award for Voluntary Service, the MBE for volunteer groups and tonight we are officially presented with a framed certificate signed by Her Majesty The Queen and an engraved domed glass crystal.

The official presentation to the Club was made by The Lord Lieutenant for Lanarkshire Mushtaq Ahmad OBE on behalf of Her Majesty The Queen. The Lord Lieutenant was accompanied by his Deputy Lord Lieutenant John McKenzie .

Also present at the award ceremony were our Award Sponsors Aileen Campbell MSP, Councillor Pat Lee and Ex Councillor Ian Gray to whom we are very gratefull for nominating us.

We were fortunate  that we had with us many former Rotarian members from previous years as well as our Founder President Dr Eric Patterson PHF.

Since our original achievement back in 2013 we are pleased to say that now one other Rotary Club has also gained this award
