Honours are for individuals from all walks of life who have achieved something very special.

The nomination is assessed by one of nine specialist committees, all independently chaired, using guidelines set out by the Prime Minister. In Devon — as elsewhere in the country — the Lieutenancy is often asked to conduct local Due Diligence checks in support of the process.
