Margaret Simpson, from Oakham, has received a British Empire Medal (BEM) for services to multiple organisations in the community in Rutland during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Patricia Ruddle from Langham also has a BEM.
The 68-year-old helped set up the voluntary fund-raising group For Rutland which supports Citizens Advice, raising some £90,000 a year.
The former High Sheriff of Rutland is and has been a long-term supporter trustee at 'Warning Zone' and raised money and the profile of the charity over many years. 'Warning Zone' warns all ten year olds in both Rutland and Leicestershire about the dangers of modern life and teaches about taking responsibility.
