Denise was given the award for services to Guiding.

Chf Supt Vicky Skeels, from Cambridgeshire Police has been given the Queen's Police Medal. while UKIP's Ramsey councillor Lisa Duffy has been awarded a British Empire Medal (BEM) for services to the community. Dorothy Fowler from Sawtry has also been given a BEM.
