The twenty-first Annual Dinner of the Isle of Wight branch was held at the Brading Roman Villa. Fifty members and invited guests assembled before the Dinner in the Villa itself to witness the Lord Lieutenant of the Isle of Wight, Major General Martin White CB CBE JP, representing Her Majesty the Queen, present the Order of the British Empire Medal to Gillian Burnett, branch Honorary Treasurer.

The acclamation from those present acknowledged the value of the voluntary work which Gillian had undertaken for the Branch, the Trustees of Carisbrooke Castle Museum, IW Sports and Recreation Council and other community organizations.
